STORY SUMMARY

PAHOA, Hawaii - The latest volcanic activity on the lower East Rift Zone and at the summit of Kilauea was detailed by the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory Tuesday evening.

(BIVN) – The eruption in Leilani Estates and the collapse at the summit of Kilauea Volcano show no signs of stopping, according to scientists.

USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory deputy scientist-in-charge Steve Brantley gave a quick update on the activity during a public meeting Tuesday evening in Pahoa.

On Wednesday morning, the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported that Fissure 8 continues to be very active and is feeding a lava channel to the ocean at Kapoho. The flow is producing a broad ocean entry along the shoreline. Fissure 22 is also active and producing a short flow, officials say.

Big Island Video News will have more from this meeting.
