Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō lava flow continues advancing downslope

The episode 61g flow from Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō continues advancing downslope. In this photo, the current flow is the lighter color area along the center of the image. The flow front has advanced about 770 m (0.5 miles) since the June 16 overflight, which equates to an advance rate of about 100 m per day (330 ft per day). The flow front was roughly 100 m (330 ft) from the northern boundary of the abandoned Royal Gardens subdivision. Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō, and its plume, are visible near the top of the image.
