We have two friends in Hawaii that we cannot get hold of.
One lives in Hilo and he is our worst worry right now.

Was Hilo evacuated?

Is there anyone we can call to find out if he’s in a evacuation place?

Really freaking out.

Don’t know if something happened or maybe the phone service is messed up.

Hilo is in no danger from this eruption, well north, about 20 miles.

Only evacuations are in the small neighborhood of Leilani Estates. Ground rift openings are only in a small area unfortunately right in that housing area.

Only time Hilo was in some danger was decades back when Mauna Loa sent lave northeast, stopping miles away.

I suspect phone service is spotty due to amount of calls.
