HONOLULU ― Powerful back-to-back earthquakes shook the island of Hawaii on Friday as lava from Kilauea volcano continued to erupt from cracks in surrounding neighborhoods. Friday’s tremors did not cause any major tsunami threat to the area, according to Hawaii County Civil Defense. The tremors could be felt as far as Hilo, more than 20 miles north of Leilani Estates.
