So Cool It's Hot

Probably a sign of geekdom, but the Kilauea volcano on Hawai'i fascinates me and I have visited it several times (there's a B&B I like). There was an earthquake swarm there a while back and all lava production shut down, but at the start of the week a new set of activity started and now there is a lava pond (complete with a lava-fall sometimes as the pond drains and refills) in Pu'u O'o vent. USGS has a webcam scanning it and at night there is an awesome view of the lava pond glowing. Check for night-time in Hawai'i and take a look.
