Hawaii prepares as volcano lava rolls towards homes  personally I'd be pissed off if my home was going to get lava'd to death - not at the volcano, at myself for living near one.

I hope the lava only destroys the homes of white people who pronounce it "Havaeee".

Hawaii seems like a nice place to live until you realize it's only a thin layer of fertile soil on top of a goddamn volcano. Like seriously there's no part of the island that isn't just hardened lava that was spewed out from the burning hot boules of the earth

But with most islands the volcanoe is done spewing lava.

I saw this on the news one night and they were interviewing some family who was packing all their stuff to get out of the way of the lava flow, and when they were asked about how she felt, the lady said something like "Well, we knew it was a risk living here" which I thought was a really mature attitude about the whole thing. Whenever people from California are interviewed about their house burning down, they always act like they didn't know it was a problem even though it happens to a bunch of people, every year, for like the past 20 years, and it seems restricted to the area where they live.

I wonder how much material/cooling it would require to actually stop that flow. It would melt iron, right? What about concrete? What material is not destroyed by lava? I've never really thought about this before. What about just digging a huge trench and redirecting it or something? I think I am probably vastly underestimating the volume of lava we're dealing with here.

A Spider Covets posted:when it gets all black and poopy, can you touch it? or is it still hot under. if its not hot, i would touch it. It is the viscosity of the lava that governs its ultimate movement. Viscosity depends upon the chemical composition of the lava and the temperature of the molten lava; viscosity increases quickly as the lava cools. The mobility of basalt is at a maximum at temperatures of 1,000 to 1,200ēC when it emerges, but when the lava's temperature has decreased to 800 ēC it firmly solidifies and does not flow any more. How far the lava reaches before it solidifies depends, therefore, upon the velocity of flow and the rate of cooling. [Editor´s note: Volatiles are also an important factor.]
