April 20, 2025 — Intermittent, minor vent activity at Kīlauea

Detailed Description

Intermittent activity occurred in the south vent at the summit of Kīlauea the morning of April 20. The lava column would rise and fall in the conduit, and when visible, a low dome fountain (approximately 5 meters, or yards, high) supplied lava into a narrow lava channel exiting the cone.
