[t]http://puu.sh/ctZSR/aaf15d6ce5.jpg[/t] [QUOTE] A lava flow is bearing down on homes in Hawaii, with the lava advancing up to 10 yards per hour, officials said. The lava was within 70 yards of the nearest residential property Monday and continued to advance overnight. The lava is blistering hot, burying streets and covering trees. Residents in the scenic town of Pahoa on Hawaii’s Big Island were forced to flee, powerless to stop the approaching river of lava. “We don’t know what we’re going to do,” resident Theresa Zendejas said. “It’s really scary.” The lava has been spewing from the Kilauea [URL="http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/disasters/volcano.htm"]volcano[/URL] since it erupted in June. The lava flow has traveled 12 miles since then, at times speeding up erratically, recently fanning out to cover more ground.

I read the title as kawaii homes first. :v: sucks for those guys though. :(
Well, it doesn't sound like it's moving to fast. So here's hoping everybody can evacuate without problems.
" has been erupting continuously since 1983. Lava flows have destroyed nearby homes in the past, including about 200 homes in the 1990s." I know the houses might be cheaper, but it's for a good reason. I remember this VHS my grandparents had of volcanoes, rivers of lava crossing roads and catching cars. Scary shit.
