Lava flow from Hawaii volcano just 70 yards from nearest residence (videos)

Hawaii: Lava flow from the Kilauea volcano that has been creeping toward inhabited areas of Hawaii`s Big Island for months is now just 70 yards (meters) from the nearest residential property, authorities said on Monday.

Residents in the path of the lava have been placed on alert for possible evacuation, and smoke advisories have been issued for downwind areas, the County of Hawaii said in a civil defense alert.

The lava flow, which first bubbled out of the continuously erupting volcano on June 27, came to a standstill in late September but resumed its slow crawl several weeks ago. It has moved about 275 yards since Sunday morning.
