(BIVN) – Low-level lava activity has returned to the summit of Kīlauea, as the ongoing summit eruption continues within Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park.
Overnight, the south vent within Halemaʻumaʻu produced numerous lava flows. The activity continued into Friday morning and appears to be ongoing.
The summit area remains highly pressurized. Data from the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory website shows continued inflation. Changes in eruptive activity or location within the summit region are possible, scientists say.
This story will be updated with the latest analysis from the USGS HVO, when the Friday activity update is published.
