Kilauea Volcano Update: Lava Flow Unites with the Ocean Creates a Dangerously Awesome View

One of the amazing views of nature is now circulating the web since the 2,000-degree lava from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park's Kilauea Volcano flowed down to the Pacific Ocean Tuesday. The beautiful view was last seen around August of 2013.

The awesome sight was perfected as the red boiling lava followed the trail of the cliff down into the cold sea. The one-of-a-kind view became a magnet that attracted so many people eager to check out the natural event. In fact, the spokeswoman for the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park said that the Park is now expecting hundreds of visitors that would want to catch a glimpse of the "unnatural marriage of fire and water," as posted by the International Business Times.

Lava has been flowing out of the Kilauea Volcano for almost four months now since May 24, but it is just this July 26 that the fiery melted rocks have reached the ocean. According to The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, the unique union of water and fire happened before dawn, about 1:12 a.m. But before it has reached the coast, it first passed "a vent called Puu Oo then an emergency road," as reported by the Seeker.

Authorities say that they are well aware of the possibility that people would want to go closer to the scene because of being in awe of such view. That's why they want to warn everyone the risks they will face if they would go closer.

The U.S. Geological Survey states that when the lava meets the ocean, the union creates flying debris which could be dangerous to any person who would want to dig deeper into the scene. Aside from that, the merging of the two also creates acidic plumes which could be irritant to eyes, skin and lungs, according toWeather. Besides, "there are additional significant hazards besides walking on uneven surfaces and around unstable, extremely steep sea cliffs," he added.
