Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano is currently spewing fiery red-orange lava up to 250 feet high from its north vent – in what’s called ‘Episode 8’ of the ongoing Halemaʻumaʻu eruption.

Kīlauea’s ongoing eruption within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park continued this morning with vigorous lava fountains reaching heights of up to 160 feet from the north vent and 115 feet from the south vent,

The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported that fountains on the north side of the crater are now reaching heights of 100 to 120 feet (30 to 40 metres) and feeding multiple streams of lava. Additionally, a smaller fountain is visible on the south side, accompanied by a small emerging lava flow.
