Slow summit inflation returned beginning last night, along with more vigorous overflows from the north vent. 69 overflows have occurred in total since Sept 7. Fountaining episode 55 could start today if inflation remains consistent.

No significant changes at Kīlauea today. Short and brief precursory lava flows continued to erupt from the north vent in Halemaʻumaʻu. Ground tilt remains flat. Forecast for episode 55 fountaining is still September 10-11.

Most recent precursory lava flow from the north vent (50th since Sept 7) at Kīlauea summit ended at 1:17 am this morning. The break in lava flows and lack of summit inflation pushes episode 55 fountaining forecast to later today/tomorrow.

There have been 4 more precursory overflows hidden in the clouds today since 9:30 am HST. These were fed by small dome fountains and each lasted 25-30 minutes. Southerly winds continue to send volcanic gas and rain to the north.

There were 10 overflows from the north vent yesterday the last ending at 1:23 am HST this morning. Tremor spikes continue. Precursory flows may restart if the summit reinflates more. Visibility is limited due to Hurricane Lowell.

The fourth precursory flow that began at 5:52 pm ended at 7:20 pm HST with a vigorous drainback. The dome fountain feeding the flow reached about 35 feet (10 meters) high. Only a slight decrease in tilt during this event.
