Eventful Week at Kīlauea's Summit Culminates in Small Explosion

Detailed Description
This was the view from the Mauna Loa Strip Road in Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park at 7 a.m. this morning. Stagnant surface winds, combined with higher elevation winds from the southwest, caused the plume to rise straight up and then shear off to the northeast. April 10, 2008
