Thermal satellite view!  WOW !   https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=regional-Hawaii-natcolorfire-96-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

Nov 27 into 28, 2022

This is the first eruption of Mauna Loa since 1984 .  Currently the lava is filling the caldera surface.  

Links above go directly to the USGS webcams for the location, current view is from the NW rim looking SE across the caldera.

Clearly the caldera has split open, with a large fissure of lava and fountains going on for about a MILE across the center of the top of the volcano.  This is a quote "big deal" indeed.

There is no way for me to know which way the lava is going to flow currently (except to know it will follow a path of least resistance, and gravity downwards whichever way is easiest for it to flow.

Our only hope is that the lava stays inside the caldera and does not flow out.. and just fills the crater with a new layer of lava.  That's the hope, but it doesn't look like hope is on the menu right now in regards to this eruption stopping suddenly.

The whole center of the caldera has ripped open currently.

11/28/2022 -- An Amazing day! Mauna Loa erupts in Hawaii -- UPDATE -- lava flow off North caldera

READ THIS!    No one is making me say this, and no the gov didn't "get to me" lol.. I think this eruption is "noteworthy" but not anything end of the world-ish.

It's not a nothingburger, but it's also not a full 7 course meal either.  Its more like a big mac and some fries I'd say. :) LOL @ that denoscription  

I'm not trying to downplay it, but its also not exactly the worst case scenario.

Currently, the lava flow is coming out of the North side of the peak of the caldera, but as I show in the video, its literally no mans land where the flow is heading.

Unless side flanks open, or something very serious happens, this eruption appears (currently) to be less than the 1984 eruption in size, and in flow amount.  THIS IS GREAT NEWS!

Now we can all oogle and awe at it without anyone getting hurt, or loss of property ... there may be a few lava bed roads to the observatory that need fixing, but no homes that I can see.. no subdivisions, and nothing in the way to redirect it.

Furthermore ( I stand by this 100%) this eruption is not nearly large enough (currently) to reach Hilo or anywhere close to it... plus it appears the path would take it first towards Mauna Kea, then possibly even WEST until it fans out (or reaches the ocean up on the NW coast by Puako).

If I had to guess now, I would say it would flow North by Northwest and out to the NW coast if the flow goes on long enough.

The only thing up there on the NW coast that I can see is a "landfill" of trash that could be covered if the flow goes that far. Otherwise, so far so good (all things considered).

Several viewers asking me if they should cancel their Hawaii plans, and I told them no... you can just send the tickets to me if you don't want to go!  lol... I'm giving the thumbs up to going and having fun if you have plans.

If anything changes I won't sugar coat it, and will update as necessary.

If you're a tourist or local there , and you see this video.. I encourage you to observe this safely from afar, get lots of video and pictures!!!!!!!!! This is a lifetime event to see, and it's not really dangerous to you unless you get up close to the lava and glassy ash...

So stay away from the lava flow lol.. don't be a stupid tourist like the people at yellowstone.. don't go swimming in boiling pools or go around taunting bison... you get the idea, you know what I mean.

Observe from afar and try to get as many pictures as possible!

11/28/2022 -- Undersea eruption in Hawaii at Loihi 3 hours BEFORE Mauna Loa erupts - Satellite view

This should be viewable to most people on their devices if you look close South of Pahala.. GOES 17 satellite "natural color / fire" view.... time stamp is : Nov 28, 2022 6:20:28 UTC  link here: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=local-HI_BigIsland-natcolorfire-200-0-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined

The location is certainly on Loihi undersea mount, South of Pahala several miles out in the ocean.

This heat signature is being picked up thousands of feet under water, and happened almost exactly 3 hours before Mauna Loa erupted at around 920 UTC.

You can still view and download this satellite feed for the next several hours.

11/29/2022 -- Large volcanic fissures (cracks) open on the North Side of Mauna Loa in Hawaii

What was postulated yesterday , fissures could form on the flank of Mauna Loa, has now taken place.

See live views shown by locals in Hawaii, Two Pineapples channel: https://youtu.be/YIgr8pZYt0I

I still don't think this is end of the world, or anything to freak out about, but it is a significant development nonetheless!

Yesterday (nov 28, 2022) when the eruption at Mauna Loa started, I made 3 videos talking about the potential of side fissures forming , allowing new lava flows to spread out from Mauna Loa.  I said to "hope for the best but plan for the worst".  

Now side fissures have formed, with large several hundred foot high lava fountains.  

The lava flow itself should follow the path I show in this video.  

Also, as I explain in this video, we are getting ZERO official feeds from professionals showing ZERO live video of any of this. All the info we are getting is coming from citizen journalists, and citizen scientists.

Today, Nov 28th into 29th, we see the media /gov has put out SHAKY HAND CAM VIDEO from inside the cockpit of a helicopter, just as I forecast (PREDICTED?!) would happen!  This is tourist season, so we can count on professionals ignoring and downplaying pretty much everything.

11/29/2022 -- Large M5.9 Earthquake and swarm at Alberta Canada Oil + Gas Ops & Mauna Loa Update

This is (was) the largest earthquake in Alberta Canadas recorded Western history: the previous earthquake record was M5.4 from 2001.

Funny story on this earthquake.... the M5.9 struck and we all got the notice for it (really it was likely a M6.0)

The professionals downgraded it quickly to M4.8 ..... lol.... in the hopes to downplay it (most likely assumption).  What I mean to say is, "we can't have the largest earthquake in Albertas recorded history be next to an oil + gas pumping operation, so what we're going to need to do is downgrade that one , ya know what I'm sayin'?!".

Professor Harold "Hairy" Potter from ACME petroleum waved his wand and said the magic words "EXPECTO PETROLEUM"  ... and poof! The M5.9 became a mere 4.8.

Then something even more 'magical' happened!  A huge swarm of aftershocks stuck the same location going from M4.0 up to M5.3 !

We would expect a swarm of aftershocks from M4.0 to M5.3 from a M6.0 original earthquake.

We would NOT expect a swarm of PROGRESSIVELY LARGER aftershocks....

Ironic how this seems to happen next to oil + gas pumping operations (not the earthquakes... but the downgrades !)

I'm not buying the whole M4.8 downgrade thing, and it really is getting suspicious to have this happen all the time -- what is this, time number 1000 or something ?  No, wait, its more than that......

As for the rest of this update.... I address Hawaii's Mauna Loa fissure activity, and the flopped earthquake forecast for this week.

12/05/2022 -- Large M6.7 (M6.9) Earthquake + 50,000 foot volcanic blast -- California M4.0+ activity

After several days with very little to report on, in the past 24 hours, two large blasts (Semeru and Stromboli) as well as a M6.7 (M6.9) earthquake struck.

Multiple M4.9 and M5.2's spreading out across the whole planet in all directions from the center punch point at Tonga.

12/06/2022 -- California M4.0 Earthquake -- Pacific seismic unrest spreads -- New watch areas named

Much love during wild times!  

Remember, don't be scared, be prepared!
