After weeks of slow movement, black lava from the Kilauea volcano destroyed a wooden shed Oct. 28 as it crept closer to homes in a Big Island community.
The lava flow easily burned down the empty shed at about 7:30 a.m., several hours after entering a residential property in Pahoa Village, said Hawaii County Civil Defense Director Darryl Oliveira.
Residents of Pahoa Village, the commercial center of the island’s Puna district south of Hilo, have had weeks to prepare for possible evacuation. Most have either left or are prepared to go. (AP)
