Fast moving lava flows from Puâu âOâo Vent: A fast moving lava flow has advanced nearly 3 miles (4.4 km) north-northeast from its source at Puâu âOâo Vent over the past week. The flow originated on June 27th, when lava broke out from fissures on the northeast flank of Puâu âOâo Cone.
Although lahars contain at least 40% (by weight) volcanic ash and rock fragmentsâmaking them dense and viscous like wet concreteâthey actually flow faster than clear-water streams. These mudflows can rush down the flanks of a volcano at speeds as great as 40 miles (65 kilometers) per hour and can travel more than 50 miles (80 kilometers). Lahars that contain the most debris (as much as 90%) move the fastest and are the most destructive.
