New breakouts SE of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō, clear views of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō
Detailed Description
Surface lava flows on the coastal plain and pali died out over Labor Day weekend with summit deflation, and new breakouts appeared on Sunday, September 2, farther upslope with the resumption of summit inflation. The new breakouts, which are modest in size and vigor, are above the top of the pali, about 4 km (2.5 miles) southeast of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō.
