UPDATE: Episode 38 produces ash cloud over Puna, rare triple lava fountain; destroys 1 of 3 livestreaming webcams at Kīlauea summit
The latest episode in the series that began nearly a year ago on Dec. 23, 2024, ended abruptly at 8:52 p.m. Saturday (Dec. 6), after a little more than 12 hours, when the south vent — which exploded earlier during the day and featured sustained fountaining as high as 1,200 feet at one point — ceased activity.
