Hawaii lava flow update appears to be showing a grim future for Kaohe Homesteads subdivision. According to website bigislandvideonews.com, Hawaii lava flow update took a turn for the worse on Wednesday as the Jun. 27 lava flow headed northeast, a few days after its northward movement.

According to The Weather Channel, Kilauea's eruption has been consistent since 1983, but scientists became especially worried last week with the Hawaii lava flow update since a new lava flow moved within a mile of a subdivision.

The flow reportedly occurred between Tuesday and Wednesday morning, said a blog created by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey.

Late last week, Gov. Neil Abercrombie has signed an emergency proclamation for Hawaii County. No families may need to evacuate yet, but residents are fully aware of the possibility.

While the Hawaii lava flow update reports of the flow slowing and moving parallel Kaohe Homesteads, according to researchers, it could still make its way into the subdivision.

According to The Weather Channel, Hawaii County Mayor Billy Kenoi told community members Tuesday that officials are now preparing just in case the lava will cross key roads within the following weeks. The lava could reportedly cut off a large portion of the rural Puna district from the rest of Hawaii.

The Hawaii lava flow update on Wednesday, as reported by the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, is that the lava flow had advanced 460 yards since the previous morning.

While the rural subdivision on the outskirts of Pahoa town a few days ago were in high spirits since the lava front appeared to be taking a parallel course to the border between Kaohe and the Wao Kele of Puna Forest Reserve, their hopes were dashed Wednesday.

During the evening, Hawaii lava flow update took a grim turn when a new set of USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory maps were revealed showing the change in direction - which could mean the end to the homesteads in less than two days, according to bigislandvideonews.com.

Scientists also released a new Volcanic Activity Notice at 7:21 p.m. on the same day.

A Hawaii lava flow update on Sept. 10 was released by the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.

The update said that "Between September 6 and 10, the June 27th flow advanced north then northeastward at an average rate of 400 m/d (0.25 mi/d). In this way, the flow had advanced approximately 14.5 km (9.0 miles straight-line distance) from the vent, or to within 0.6 km (0.4 miles) of the eastern boundary of the Wao Kele o Puna Forest Reserve, by the afternoon of September 10."

It continued, "At the average rate of advancement of 400 m/day (0.25 mi/day) since September 6, we project that lava could flow from its current location to the northwest edge of Kaohe Homesteads in 1.5 days and to the Pāhoa Village road (government road) in Pāhoa within 14-16 days if lava is not further confined within the cracks and down-dropped blocks within the East Rift Zone of Kīlauea volcano. These estimates will be continually refined as we track this lava flow."

A resident named Shawn Heard living near the Kilauea volcano was forced to move out of her house once before because of the lava. That was back in the 1980s. However, she is still welcome to the possibility that the Hawaii lava flow update will be at its worst soon and she would have to leave her house again.

Heard's home is only miles from the homes now threatened by the lava flow which is making its way to the rain forest-like slopes of Kilauea. Heard knows completely the implications of the recent Hawaii lava flow update.

Despite this, Heard cannot think of anywhere else better to live.

She said whilst in her shop, "Puna Style", in downtown Pahoa the largest town in the district, "It's such a magical place."

According to the Associated Press, with the Hawaii lava flow update, those who are planning to move or are in the process of doing so, are pausing their plans. Each month brings forth new evacuation warnings.

Despite Heard's love for her home in the subdivision, after five years, she is forced to move her home to Leilani Estates, a place comfortably sitting amongst the thick forest.

She said her decision to leave was not because of lava going to her property, but because the molten rock flowing into their area could possibly disrupt access to the main road.

Meanwhile, in the downtown where Heard's boutique was located, Savio Realty's usual flow of clients has waned down because of the Hawaii lava flow update, said broker Sandra Lee Hegerfelt.

Hegerfelt said some potential home buyers are backing out of escrow for the same reason Heard left - lava may block roads.

Apparently, officials have warned that lava might cover part of a highway, isolating around 8,000 residents.

Hawaii lava flow update said lava is even creeping through forests, setting trees ablaze. According to The Weather Channel, the lava flow began in June when a vent opened at Kilauea's Puu Oo crater. Since then, the lave has started traveling nearly 9 miles, or just over 10 miles if twists and turns are taken accounted for.
