This morning, around 2:20 AM, a new #Kilauea eruption began within Kaluapele (the summit caldera). It was caught on camera by #HVO's B2cam. Images taken by the webcam were compiled into this timelapse video that shows lava fountains feeding lava flows across the caldera floor.

Photos from #HVO field teams returning from Nāpau Crater. Just a day ago, it seemed as though the rift zone eruption was over. But the opening of a new fissure vent on the hill above #NapauCrater generated lava fountains that sent lava over the rim and onto the crater floor.
USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory geologists conducted a reconnaissance overflight of the eruption near Nāpau Crater on the middle East Rift Zone of Kīlauea. They observed lava cascading over the rim of the crater from a channel more than 50 meters (about 164 feet) wide. Lava is contained within Nāpau Crater and now covers about two thirds of the crater floor. USGS photo taken Sep 19, 2024, by M. Zoeller.

During the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reconnaissance overflight the morning of September 19, geologists observed the fissure west of Nāpau Crater generating a lava flow that travels northeast before cascading into the crater on the remote middle East Rift Zone of Kīlauea. This aerial view is looking in a south direction, from north of the eruption site. Nāpau Crater is in the left part of the photo. USGS photo by M. Zoeller.

#Kilauea volcano's middle East Rift Zone eruption resumed late on Sep 16, 2024, and continues this morning within a remote area of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. During the AM overflight, #HVO geologists observed fountaining & active lava flows on the floor of Nāpau Crater.
This photograph of Kīlauea's ongoing middle East Rift Zone eruption was captured during a Hawaiian Volcano Observatory helicopter overflight during the morning of September 17, 2024. Geologists observed fountaining eruptive fissures and active lava flows on the floor of Nāpau Crater, just downrift (northeast) of the September 15 eruptive fissure. This south-facing view shows the current activity from the north side of Nāpau Crater. USGS photo by A. Ellis.

#Yellowstone Park staff are on scene assessing conditions after a small hydrothermal explosion occurred today (July 23) in #BiscuitBasin. There are no reports of injuries. The boardwalk, on the other hand, will need a few repairs. The area remains temporarily closed. NPS photos.

🌋🚨Update on the new Kīlauean eruption from @USGSVolcanoes: “The eruption is currently ongoing but is taking place in a remote location within the national park, is low in eruptive volume, and does not pose an immediate threat to human life or critical infrastructure.” :)
Dr Robin George Andrews 🌋☄️@SquigglyVolcano3 Jun 2024
🌋🚨Kīlauea volcano has just started erupting. Per the USGS: “A new eruption began at approximately 12:30 a.m. HST likely about a mile (1-2 km) south of Kīlauea caldera and north of the Koa'e fault system and Hilina Pali Road, within Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park.” 1/3
