The slow-moving but menacing flow of red-hot lava from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is threatening to consume its first home.<br/> <br />The molten liquid is moving at about 10 to 15 meters per hour as it trudges towards a village on Hawaii's Big Island.<br/> <br />Residents in the projected path of the flow have been urged to evacuate, and they've been slowly doing just that.<br/> <br />The lava had buried mostly grass, trees and other vegetation since it started moving a few weeks ago, but on Tuesday it covered a small shack and was within 100 meters of the nearest house.<br/> <br />Authorities say they won't force residents to stay away from their land if the lava threatens it, and in some cases they might even be allowed to watch the destruction -- the idea being that it may help them with the grieving process.
