Detailed Description

The weather today allowed for clear views of the episode 61g flow field and Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō. The active 61g surface flows continue on Pūlama Pali and near the base, along with scattered breakouts on the upper flow field (above the pali). The closest active surface flows to the emergency road are approximately 2.8 km (1.7 miles). The three breakout areas on Pūlama Pali are marked in the photo by black arrows, and Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō can be seen on the skyline. There have been no major changes at the inactive Kamokuna lava delta.
