I remember in the late 70ies when Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano erupted. It was a very similar scenario to the msnbc.com Hawaii Volcano Eruption Video shown during the nightly show with Brian Williams and displayed on MSN.
Back thirty years ago, it was also the East Rift zone that erupted. We were able to drive our car and park along a road close-by to the lava flow. The eruption was maybe 300yards away, with a curtain of lava, very similar to the video, shooting lava over 100 feet into the air with the curtain extending far a distance of more than 200 yards. Just to stand there and watch the most active volcano on earth, spewing red hot molten lava and listening to the sound as if a jet engine is ready to take off but never does, that is deeply embedded in my mind, never to be forgotten.
Big Island visitors' numbers have considerably increased according to 'US Today Travel' due to the dramatic Hawaii volcano eruption. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park recommends Big Island volcano visitors to get maps, photos, Webcam views, and other information about Kilauea Volcano on the official Hawaii Volcano website. Currently the 'Chain of Craters' Road, East Rift Zone and the campground in Volcanoes Park are closed for visitors. Big Island visitors may get a daily update on the volcano's activity and road closures by phone at (808) 967-8862.
If you are interested in more information about our Hawaii Kilauea Volcano history and the current 2011 eruption, visit 'Big Island Video News' - best source for daily Big Island video news -, which actually just published today interesting information about the 'Man behind global Hawaiian Volcano eruption video' I guess we all, including msnbc.com, have to give him huge credit for this amazing 'Hawaii Volcano Eruption Video".
