Kilauea Volcano — Ocean Entry Aerial

Detailed Description

Close view of weak ocean entry at about 1:05 p.m. HST. Only small and intermittent "laze" plumes have been observed today. The vents that supplied lava to the flow and sea stopped erupting overnight, and only residual lava still hot within the flow occasionally spilled into the sea today.
