Why would it fuse? It's still hot if flowing. Wouldn't any trace of the strike be obliterated? (I'm mainly thinking of ʻaʻa and Pahoehoe type flows -- not sure what the "spewed lava" looks like at Chaiten)

This awesome phenomenon was seen during the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. A large eruption creates it’s own weather system!

It’s like the smoke is saying to the lightning, “I lava you”. (Sorry, couldn’t resist.)

Unbelievable! Wow. And that is just a snapshot (if you will) of what went on for more than a couple seconds. I can only imagine what onlookers watching it for longer times must have seen and thought.
