Kilauea Volcano extremely active

Kilauea Volcano is active at two locations. At the summit, low ash production and elevated sulfur dioxide emissions continued from the Halema`uma`u vent. Seismic tremor levels continued elevated to several times background levels. At the east rift eruption site, lava resumed nearly full flow from vents in the east rift zone through tubes into the ocean at the Waikupanaha and Ki ocean entries with some lava diverted into a few surface flows.
