A new lava flow has broken out 3 miles North of Apa Street in Pahoa Hawaii.  The new flow is reported to be moving at approximately 1000ft per day. 

I did image stabilization on this video in order to remove some of the hand camera shake. :)

Special thanks to the adventurous crew at Paradise Helicopters!  

If you're ever in Hawaii, you can take a tour using their service!  Apparently its not too expensive to get a first hand view.  Wish I could fly to Hawaii, I'd charter their services to get a view of this.
