Volcanic Activity Summary:

Episode 26 of the ongoing Halemaʻumaʻu eruption ended abruptly at 10:25 a.m. HST on Friday, June 20, when lava fountains and flows stopped erupting from the south vent. The episode consisted of about 8 hours of continuous lava fountaining.

The north vent stopped erupting at approximately 10:07 a.m. HST. The south vent stopped erupting at approximately 10:25 a.m. HST, marking the end of the episode. Lava fountains reached heights of well over 1,000 ft (300 m) during this episode. Volcanic gas emissions have greatly decreased. Lava flows from this episode on the floor of Halemaʻumaʻu within the southern part of Kaluapele (Kīlauea caldera) will continue to exhibit slow movement and incandescence as they cool and solidify over the coming days.
The Uēkahuna tiltmeter (UWD) recorded more than 18 microradians of deflationary tilt during this episode. The end of the eruption was coincident with a rapid change from deflation to inflation at the summit and a decrease in seismic tremor intensity.
Most episodes of Halemaʻumaʻu lava fountaining since the eruption started on December 23, 2024, have continued for around a day or less and have been separated by pauses in eruptive activity lasting generally at least several days.

No changes have been detected in the East Rift Zone or Southwest Rift Zone. HVO continues to closely monitor Kīlauea and will issue a VAN/VONA at the start of the next eruptive episode. If possible, HVO will also issue a VAN/VONA beforehand at the onset of low-level activity precursory activity. Daily updates will be published each morning as regularly scheduled.
Kīlauea Volcano Alert Level/Aviation Color Code remain at WATCH/ORANGE. All current and recent activity is within Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park.
