USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory webcam imagery analyses confirm that lava fountains erupted during episode 23 were the highest recorded so far in the ongoing eruption at the summit of #Kīlauea. Fountains from the north vent reached nearly 350 meters (1,150 feet) around 5:30 p.m. HST on May 25. Cooled pieces of lava (called tephra) falling from the episode 23 fountains contributed to a growing deposit on the southwest rim of Halemaʻumaʻu, in the hazardous closed area of Hawai'i Volcanoes Nation

Eruptive activity at the summit of Kīlauea volcano on the Island of Hawaiʻi remains paused as of December 2. However, USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory geologists on a monitoring overflight this morning observed a spattering lava surface deep in both the north and south vents in Halemaʻumaʻu crater. Glow was visible in both vents in webcam imagery last night, as well as weak spattering within the north vent. Based on patterns of ground inflation since the end of episode 37 on November 25, models
