Fountains from the south vent dropped slightly to 500-600 feet high and the north vent began fountaining again at 8:27 am HST. North vent fountains are currently 100-200 feet high.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-20 08:08:06 HST
High fountains from the south vent increased to 500-700 feet at 7:46 am HST when the north vent quit fountaining. Lava floors now cover over 2/3 of the floor of Halema'uma'u crater.

Sustained fountaining from Episode 14 began in the south vent at 6:30 a.m. HST, followed by the north vent at 6:50 a.m. HST. Fountain heights are reaching 400-600 ft and lava flows cover ~50% of the Halema'uma'u crater floor at 7:20 a.m.HST
Kilauea Message 2025-03-20 07:07:27 HST
The south vent began sustained fountaining at about 6:30 am HST. The north vent fountains began at 6:50 am HST. Both fountains are now 400-600 feet high at 7:06 am HST and feed large flows cover 25% of the crater floor.

Periodic bursts of increased fountaining rose above the north the cone wall (reaching 50-100 ft) at approximately at 4:10 am HST. Cyclic rise and fall of the lava pond continues. Lava flows cover ~10% of crater floor.

Cyclic low lava fountaining (30 ft high) and drainback events of the lava pond in the north cone continue to feed a small lava flow within Halema'uma'u crater at 8:15 pm HST on March 19. The south vent remains intermittently active.

Cyclic low lava fountaining (30 ft high) and drainback events of the lava pond in the north cone continue to feed a small lava flow within Halema'uma'u crater at 4:25 pm HST on March 19. The south vent remains intermittently active.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-19 10:23:38 HST
Small lava flows began erupting from the south vent around 9:50 am HST on March 19. Both the north and south vent are continuously erupting degassed lava flows as of 10:20 am HST and this activity appears to be the start of episode 14.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-19 09:38:19 HST
An eighth small lava flow emerging from the north vent erupted at 9:26 a.m. HST on March 19. This flow was accompanied by spatter in the north and south vent.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-19 06:15:22 HST
A seventh short-lived flow erupted from the south vent between 6:02 a.m. and 6:10 a.m. HST March 19. This flow was accompanied by large spatter bursts from the south vent that could be seen over the top of the north cone on the V1 camera.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-19 05:29:25 HST
A sixth sluggish lava flow erupted from the south vent from 5:04 to 5:14 am HST March 19. The continuous eruption of lava accompanied by fountaining that would mark episode 14 has not yet begun but is likely to start in 24 hours or less.
Kilauea Message 2025-03-19 04:40:32 HST
Periodic small, sluggish flows continue from the south vent. The fourth and fifth flows erupted from 3:36 to 3:46 a.m. HST. and from 4:20 a.m. to 4:28 a.m. HST March 19. The flows went about 50 feet (15 m) from the vent.
