Detailed Description

Clear weather today provided ideal conditions for HVO's observations of the water pond at the bottom of Halema‘uma‘u. Routine laser rangefinder measurements indicate that the pond continues to rise. The rate at which the water is rising is estimated to be less than one meter (yard) per week, so day to day changes in the pond dimensions are subtle. USGS photo by M. Patrick, 08-27-2019.
