Oh wow! I saw there were some more quakes but only from the global view, so since all the dots overlapped I didn't notice how many there were.

Yeah, something's going on alright.

I need to look up where the rift(s) are in relation to this. It would totally suck if this were a sign of even a small slope failure.

It could also just mean some magma is gonna pop out somewhere new, too.

Time to start digging...

Cracks in roads due to ground deformation.

Also, lave flowing in Leilana Estates, evacuations under way. Preparations being made for possible Kilauea eruption.
