Lava News captured the lava from Hawaii’s Kilauea Volcano entering the Pacific Ocean on May 20, creating a huge plume of so-called laze, which the USGS says is short for “lava haze”.

The lava traveled from the Leilani Estates to the coast, with part of highway 137 closed off, potentially affecting residents trying to evacuate, Hawaii News Now reported. Credit: Lava News via Storyful
