Volcanic eruptions occur int he State about as frequently as the large San Andreas Fault Zone earthquakes. California's "watch list" volcanoes are dispersed throughout the State and future eruptions are inevitable—the likelihood of renewed volcanism is on the order of one in a few hundred to one in a few thousand annually.

The video shows small smoking objects (insects) and a larger object (bird) as it begins to smoke when entering the solar flux. The turquoise window is the thermal camera view of this same event.

The video shows smaller smoking objects (insects). Dark objects (birds) are flying above the tower. We are uncertain of the origin of dark trails following the birds. 
 

The lava flow southeast of Pu'u 'Ō'ō reached the ocean overnight at about 1:15 am. The narrow lobe of lava spilling over the sea cliff has built a tiny delta at the shore, with a weak ocean entry plume.

The lava flow southeast of Pu'u 'Ō'ō continues to advance downslope, and has crossed roughly half of the coastal plain. Upslope of the flow front there was still some 'a'ā activity, with several small open channels on the pali. The front of the flow was 1.7 km (1.1 miles) from the ocean today.

The lava flow southeast of Pu'u 'Ō'ō continues to advance downslope, and has begun crossing the coastal plain. The leading portion of the flow now consists ot pāhoehoe, shown in this video. Upslope of the flow front there was still some 'a'ā activity, with a few small open channels on the pali.

The lava flow southeast of Pu'u 'Ō'ō continues to advance downslope, and reached the base of the pali yesterday. The leading portion of the flow still consists of narrow channelized 'a'ā streaming down the steep part of the pali.
