Over shorter periods, the advance rate varied from 62 to 90 feet per hour,\u201d it added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, when the lava reaches a flat area, \u201clava flows advance more slowly, spread out, and inflate,\u201d it noted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The spectacle has drawn observers and tourists who want to see the eruption of the volcano. Mauna Loa is the largest active volcano on the planet and started erupting last month on November 27 for the first <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/12\/06\/hawaii-activates-national-guard-mauna-loa-lava-nears-daniel-k-inouye\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">time<\/a> in almost forty years.

How fast it\u2019s moving. How close it\u2019s gonna come to the highway. How long it will take if there\u2019s any dangers that we\u2019re seeing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Whether or not the lava will get to the highway is mainly based on the duration of the volcano\u2019s eruption.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWe don\u2019t know how long this eruption is going to last, and that will dictate whether or not the highway becomes more threatened,\u201d Natalia Deligne, a volcanologist with the U.S. Geological Survey at the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/12\/06\/us\/mauna-loa-highway-kilauea-eruption-tuesday\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> CNN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The eruption of Hawaii\u2019s Mauna Loa volcano\u00a0has led to the National Guard being activated over concerns regarding lava moving closer to a major commuter highway.
