Beautiful. I remember when it started. It went right through a town that had to be evacuated. It just slowly crept from the mountain to the sea. It has been doing this off and on for years.

"The entry of lava into the ocean is difficult to observe from a distance because it's often obscured by an energetic and acidic steam plume or by an abrupt cliff above the entry point. This often invites visitors to jeopardize their safety by walking right up to and over the point where lava enters the ocean. Activity that may appear stable and non threatening can actually change without warning, leaving no time for escape."
