Lava flows are advancing along highway 132 from Fissure 8 (near Noni Farms road) and toward coast from Fissure 18 (~0.75 miles from highway 137). Summit seismicity is elevated with several felt earthquakes in the last few hours.

Fissure 8 very active with two fountains reaching 200+ feet at times. The fissure is feeding a fast-moving pahoehoe flow that is moving north down Nohea Street north of Leilani Street.

Weak ash emissions continue from the Overlook crater. Several magnitude 3+ earthquakes recorded in the summit area over the past 8 hours.

Lava from Sunday night's Fissure 8 outbreak is about 50 m from crossing Pohoiki Road. High rates of earthquakes are occurring at the summit as deflation there continues.
