I was a resident of Vacationland; fortunate to experience life there. The tide pools, hot pond etc. were so so special. Now they are gone forever. WOW. It's difficult to "get my head around."
when i moved from kona side 15yrs ago, poho'iki was the first place(bedsides luquins!) i went ... woke in the morning and i knew i had found the 'hawaii' i had always been looking for ... besides just me, as they mention in the vid, this was a gathering place for many, if we lose it, it will be greatly missed. we will be fine. new ponds, pools, surfing and gathering places will be found or get made. people will plant, roads will be carved out of the new lava. madam just had to do some house cleaning and 'furniture re-arranging'!
The helicopter overflight video is always good. If it is safe, can you please get some video from the area of the Kapoho crater where the main flow direction changed last week? And, Why was the flow restriction at Kapoho Crater allowed to change the flow of the lava? Why wasn't the obstruction removed by demolition? Thanks.
HEY BIG ISLAND........ did you forget what title you gave to this video????????? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot....... what about the coming days and POHOIKI????????????? This video is a re-run of another video we already watched!!!!!!
Much too early to put a "name" on fissure 8. Several have suggested something with Leilani in it, but that ignores the other areas, many of which were very dear to quite a few people.
ladykiri42 Difference is those other areas either already have small cones named after them, such as with Kapoho, or were only a small part of the destruction. As someone with family in nearby Pahoa, I asked them, and they agreed that Leilani Estates, as the epicenter of the main Fissure 8 eruption, should get the honor of giving their name to the cone. Kapoho, Vacationland, and Ahalahnui may be gone, but so isn’t most of Leilani.
If renaming gives it historical value... In a 1000 years will it be able to be traced to being called fissures 8? Or is the history of it lost with the renaming. Originally it was fissure 8. Do you have the name and "all" history of the other volcanoes?
Obamaville Island has always been a Subsidised Nanny State ever since Statehood...they have NOTHING But Tourism, Navy, and a VERY BIG GOVERNMENT run by, for, and about Democrats....everything on the Plantation is Imported except for Coconuts, Coffee, and Weed....All the T-Shirts, Hawaiian Shirts, and Shorts come from China, Vietnam, or Indonesia....It's a Liberal Plantation.
More like Waring Tribes killing each other given a dose of their own Medicine by a Stronger Power....So Secede already Blottos...we don't want to Subsidise DIck Heads eating SPAM who like to get High and live next to a Volcano and then Cry everytime it goes off anymore...you never really were a State anyway...
Lava covering 10-20 sq miles, SO2 gas killing forests and this guy says they need to do an environment impact study to see if it is safe to open another boat ramp. Get some perspective.
Mang Led McGee which airline? i plan 2 go there in about 2 weeks ... look 4 cheap (affordable.by me) land set up & live there ... garden ... try 2 run a bee hive
DLNR, Please consider the following: How about using the D9 dosers that smoothed out a portion of the Chain of Craters Road 45 + - days ago to make a few easier paths to the ocean (drainage ditch) for the lava? Hydrolicly force those ripper tooths down into the old lava and head for the ocean repeatedly. Than use the blade to push out broken up lava and make a low spot. Thus an easier way to the low spot/Pacific that any liquid will follow. As a boy in the 1950s I lived in the house next to the Drainage Ditch in Waianae. Even as a 7 year old, I could not help notice even than that the Drainage Ditch worked automaticly, 24/7 and is actually still there to this day on duty.
And how do you suggest they get those dosers digging over an ACTIVE lava flow? Oh nevermind, suppose they could dig out a channel for the lava to flow out to sea. Might work for maybe two hours before the lava would overflow or plug or dam up and go somewhere else. I really wouldn't compare a drainage ditch that drains water with a lava flow. Water and lava aren't exactly the same....
Over 700 house wiped out by lava flows, good chance the entire South end of the island will be wiped out and this guy is worried about an “environmentally friendly alternative” boat ramp? Hippies... SMH.
Ya gotta wonder whether in this case, "environmentally friendly" shouldn't be taken to mean, "wihere there are no molten lava puddles lapping at your toes." Fred
Obama's Deep State Goons...That's who....DLNR, NPS, EPA, DNR, DNC, CNN, etc, etc. all are in the Tank for Progressives (Socialists/Globalists)...#wakaway
NO FEDERAL FUNDING for Dumb Shits who want to live in an Active Volcanic Zone....do it on your own Dime at your own Risk..NO LAW SUITS...NO VICTIM STATUS...NOTHING....Mahalo
HARRY: THAT WAS QUITE AN INTELLIGENT REPLY. NOT! DO NOT TAKE THINGS OFF THE TABLE UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE ALL THE RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND IT TO BE A TOTAL IMPOSSIBILITY. NOT A IMPROBABILITY, BUT A TOTAL IMPOSSIBILITY. NOW, WHO IS THE RETARDED COQUI?
I can't understand why no effort has been made to manipulate the lava flow. Pumping water could slow down advances to a stop and blasting similar to avalanche control could carve/influence the main lava channel.
Why interfere with a natural process that is the primary building block of one of the most beautiful places on this planet? How many lives would it cost? How many millions would it take to save a few more homes? Especially given that water applied to this lava creates a toxic laze plume. It would be just as effective to take all the un informed critics and internet geniuses and drop them by helicopter into the opening of #8. Unfortunately wouldn't solve anything either as it relates to the lava.
Spirit Angelfish History, mate. Iceland was uninhabited until some Vikings arrived about 1000 years ago. In 1973 an eruption threatened the town of Vestmannaeyjar's only natural harbour & fishing industry. The locals pumped seawater at the lava, causing it to crust & form a barrier, diverting the flow & saving the harbour.
Where are the Hawaiian Nativists now Demanding Secession from the US ? You aren't going to take "Dirty Money" from Donald Trump are you Blottos ? Hawaiians wouldn't last a month without non stop Container Ships bringing your SPAM.... or Tourists ...US Navy ,and your US funded Big State Government ....
Arnold - This type of thinking is sub par and lazy. If you live your life like that with every decision and every outcome you will never actually LIVE. Rammstein45 is right, most people who consider "GOD" as a being are just talking to themselves or imagining something. Believe what you want, but I'll stick to facts that are verifiable and tangible and quantifiable.
exactly what pagans do: burn their own children/abortion/moloch/sirius dog star/synagogue of Satan. love and truth are two different things. aleister crowley talked about love yet he was the most wicked. love was made known at the stake of the place of the skull. anything more than that is a counterfeit. Christ Jesus HAS the keys of death and hell.every truth rejector will be cast to the pit.
The earth is doing what it has done for billions of years. In 2004 an earthquake and resulting tsunami killed a quarter of a million people. Mark would claim they were "truth rejectors". Were the babies sinners too, Mark?
Hardship is now defined by not being able to go boating? That's how awesome America is now. Mostly because of good leadership no mo recession. This is what MAGA does!!!!
hardship has 2 definitions and it's usage is important, if discussing hardship, it is defined as severe depravation, oppression or something very hard to bear. If you are discussing a hardship, it is a lack of comfort, a constant toil or danger. The usage in the video is the latter, not the former.
You clearly need to buy a dictionary my friend, since you are assuming the incorrect definition of the word. The man in the video is using it correctly, it is a lack of a comfort previously enjoyed.
I was a resident of Vacationland; fortunate to experience life there. The tide pools, hot pond etc. were so so special. Now they are gone forever. WOW. It's difficult to "get my head around."
Keoki Ciervo they'll return. Just not the same.
Keoki Ciervo Sorry for your Loss, even though it's not a human loss it's still a big deal.
Maybe some videos and pictures will help.
Without these forces, the island would not be there in the first place.
Keoki. so sorry for all that's been lost
yeah did the Volcano fill out a form before it blew but we need forms for a boat ramp now a days
Yep, I saw Pele at the government office filling out an exemption form for to much pollution.
Pohoiki is a favorite SURFING spot as well as water entry on the entire side! Everyone here is praying Pele spares it;)
Mauka=mountain ward
Makai=sea ward
Makani = wind
Maka = eye
Make = dead
Marijuana = HIGH
when i moved from kona side 15yrs ago, poho'iki was the first place(bedsides luquins!) i went ... woke in the morning and i knew i had found the 'hawaii' i had always been looking for ... besides just me, as they mention in the vid, this was a gathering place for many, if we lose it, it will be greatly missed. we will be fine. new ponds, pools, surfing and gathering places will be found or get made. people will plant, roads will be carved out of the new lava. madam just had to do some house cleaning and 'furniture re-arranging'!
How absolutely heartbreaking for all who live there..
That will be an annoyance; a hardship is loosing your home!
The helicopter overflight video is always good. If it is safe, can you please get some video from the area of the Kapoho crater where the main flow direction changed last week?
And, Why was the flow restriction at Kapoho Crater allowed to change the flow of the lava? Why wasn't the obstruction removed by demolition?
Thanks.
Recreational boaters!Maybe 10 %,maybe,90% plus of the boats that are launched at pohoiki are commercial fisherman.
But they Hurt the Turtles,Fish, Dolphins, and Whales Comrade ALL FOR $$$$....they must be Stopped !
Paradise comes to an end
Follow Kilauea’s lead. Reclaim the land and blaze a path to the sea for the new road and boat ramp.
HEY BIG ISLAND........ did you forget what title you gave to this video????????? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot....... what about the coming days and POHOIKI????????????? This video is a re-run of another video we already watched!!!!!!
How is not being able to go jetskiing a hardship to the community?

Lil Leilani...
LuanaLeilani That’s where it all began.
If renaming gives it historical value...

Or is the history of it lost with the renaming.
Originally it was fissure 8.
Do you have the name and "all" history of the other volcanoes?
I Propose "Michelle Obama's Nasty Black Crack" as a New name in Honor of Hawaii's Home Boy... Homie the Brown Clown....
One of the major problems in Hawaii is that there is way too much government red tape.
Obamaville Island has always been a Subsidised Nanny State ever since Statehood...they have NOTHING But Tourism, Navy, and a VERY BIG GOVERNMENT run by, for, and about Democrats....everything on the Plantation is Imported except for Coconuts, Coffee, and Weed....All the T-Shirts, Hawaiian Shirts, and Shorts come from China, Vietnam, or Indonesia....It's a Liberal Plantation.
Exacto mundo right you are!
The Hawaii Files Channel , a sovereign nation taken in a coup from the locals by the United fruit company.
More like Waring Tribes killing each other given a dose of their own Medicine by a Stronger Power....So Secede already Blottos...we don't want to Subsidise DIck Heads eating SPAM who like to get High and live next to a Volcano and then Cry everytime it goes off anymore...you never really were a State anyway...
Harry, everything you wrote is true. But WTH in love it here living under a tarp with my little Hawaiian babe. How is your life going again?
Rip
Build three boat ramps, just gained 150+ new acres of land, no IMPACT.
Lava covering 10-20 sq miles, SO2 gas killing forests and this guy says they need to do an environment impact study to see if it is safe to open another boat ramp. Get some perspective.
1:00 What a waste of a van it might be.
Flight Tickets are cheap tho. I can finally afford to go now
Mang Led McGee which airline? i plan 2 go there in about 2 weeks ... look 4 cheap (affordable.by me) land
set up & live there ... garden ... try 2 run a bee hive
not playing in the ocean is NOT A HARDSHIP
DLNR, Please consider the following:

Water and lava aren't exactly the same....
NO, the ditch obvilusly needs to be placed in "Old Lava", in the direction that the lava is moving in BEFORE it gets there.............
Never Know till you try a few times actually, or we can just roll over and take it and not even try................
Are you offering to opperate the D9?
BIG Yes, fly me in from New York area and I will be DELIGHTED TO as long as the proper saftey conditions are in place.
Over 700 house wiped out by lava flows, good chance the entire South end of the island will be wiped out and this guy is worried about an “environmentally friendly alternative” boat ramp? Hippies... SMH.

Fred
Environmental studies? Pele's whip will make short work of those! No doubt everybody has their hands out for government funds.
Why is it always taxpayers who are asked to fund these expensive boondoggle facilities? If boaters want access, let them pay for it thru fees.
Who are these ppl? DLNR?

Stay low to the ground. Love to you all. Water is the connection. You know I wish you had a submarine launch "ramp" there. 😉
Lol, what foolz
Gonna take half the island in the coming years.
Spotted the "expert".
because lava flows uphill according to 'the stimpy'
The island is there because of eruptions like this.
Hell it's a volcano so it could overtake the whole island any day.
southern folk - so lava flows uphill where you're from, I take it.
God did not mention boat ramps or surfing or paddling or kayaking in the bible. Repent you sinners and beg for his divine mercy.
No mention of typing on a computer keyboard either,,,, see you in hell sinner, I'll bring some beer.
slimeronio no need to bring beer. You get 70 kegs of beer upon arrival
elstan: god didn't mention youtube or computers in the bible either ... but, here your ignorant ass is! you even live here?
THANKS A HEEP PGV! SHAME!
Don't you know Global Warming and Trump caused this Volcano to Erupt Comrade ?
HARRY: I DO HOPE YOUR COMMENT WAS 'TONGUE IN CHEEK'! ... COMRADE!
Anybody who thinks PGV caused this has the Brain Power of a Retarded Coqui Frog..."Make Democrats Cry Again" Nov 2018...Trump 2020
HARRY: THAT WAS QUITE AN INTELLIGENT REPLY. NOT! DO NOT TAKE THINGS OFF THE TABLE UNTIL YOU HAVE DONE ALL THE RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND IT TO BE A TOTAL IMPOSSIBILITY. NOT A IMPROBABILITY, BUT A TOTAL IMPOSSIBILITY. NOW, WHO IS THE RETARDED COQUI?
beo wooooof u still theretard
I can't understand why no effort has been made to manipulate the lava flow. Pumping water could slow down advances to a stop and blasting similar to avalanche control could carve/influence the main lava channel.
umvhu Icelanders saved a harbour by pumping seawater at the lava once
SueTube That was a completely different situation and a different type of volcano
Why interfere with a natural process that is the primary building block of one of the most beautiful places on this planet? How many lives would it cost? How many millions would it take to save a few more homes? Especially given that water applied to this lava creates a toxic laze plume.
It would be just as effective to take all the un informed critics and internet geniuses and drop them by helicopter into the opening of #8. Unfortunately wouldn't solve anything either as it relates to the lava.
umvhu Because superstition reigns there.
Spirit Angelfish History, mate.
Iceland was uninhabited until some Vikings arrived about 1000 years ago. In 1973 an eruption threatened the town of Vestmannaeyjar's only natural harbour & fishing industry. The locals pumped seawater at the lava, causing it to crust & form a barrier, diverting the flow & saving the harbour.

Xaiano can’t imagine life without a boat ramp eh? But where will the lava boat launch from OH my! What hardship! Just build a new one. Helpless fools.
You clearly need to buy a dictionary my friend, since you are assuming the incorrect definition of the word. The man in the video is using it correctly, it is a lack of a comfort previously enjoyed.
What we have here is one who supports a traitor.
