Lava from Mauna Loa, the world’s largest active volcano, continues to ooze towards a major highway on Hawaii’s Big Island, though officials are saying populated areas aren’t at risk. As of Thursday morning, the leading edge of lava flow from the volcano, which erupted for the first time in 38 years on Sunday night, is more than 3 miles from Daniel K. Inouye Highway, also known as Saddle Road, and near 7,000 ft. elevation, according to the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency.
