Live view of the eruption in Halemaʻumaʻu, from the northwest rim of the caldera, looking east [V1cam] ===== Kīlauea FAQs: Kīlauea Recent Eruption site: Kīlauea geology, history, and measurements: Kīlauea eruption video (from June 7, 2023): USGS Kīlauea Volcano: USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory: Kīlauea webcams: ===== Volcano Information Updates: USGS HAWAIIAN VOLCANO OBSERVATORY STATUS REPORT Thursday, June 15, 2023, 7:05 AM HST (Thursday, June 15, 2023, 17:05 UTC) Current Volcano Alert Level: WATCH Current Aviation Color Code: ORANGE KILAUEA (VNUM 332010) 19°25'16“ N 155°17'13“ W, Summit Elevation 4091 ft (1247 m) Current Volcano Alert Level: WATCH Current Aviation Color Code: ORANGE Activity Summary: Kīlauea volcano is erupting. Eruptive activity is confined to Halemaʻumaʻu crater within the summit caldera at Kīlauea. No unusual activity has been noted along the volcano’s East Rift Zone or Southwest Rift Zone. Halemaʻumaʻu Eruption Observations: The eruptive vent in the southwest wall of Halemaʻumaʻu continues effusing into the lava lake in the far southwestern portion of the crater. Intermittent spattering at this vent was visible in overnight webcam views. At this time, it is the only active eruptive vent; yesterday morning there was weak lava effusion from another source near the western eruptive vent from the January–March 2023 eruption, but this site has shown no signs of continued activity over the past 24 hours. The surface of the southwestern lava lake continues to circulate and has been slowily rising, with an elevation increase of approximately 0.5 meters (1.5 feet) over the past day. Lava circulation also continues within the central basin that became the focus of effusion during both the 2021–2022 and early 2023 eruptions. No active lava has been observed in the northern or eastern portions of the crater over the past day. A live-stream video of the crater is available at Summit Observations: Summit tiltmeters briefly tracked moderate inflation starting late yesterday morning, but it slowed in the afternoon and tilt is trending slightly deflationary so far today. Summit seismic activity is dominated by eruptive tremor—a signal resulting from fluid movement, and commonly associated with eruptive activity. Volcanic gas emissions in the area remain elevated; a sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission rate of approximately 5,300 tonnes per day was measured yesterday, Wednesday, June 14. Rift Zone Observations: No unusual activity has been noted along the East Rift Zone or Southwest Rift Zone; steady but low rates of ground deformation and seismicity continue along both. Measurements from continuous gas monitoring stations in the middle East Rift Zone—the site of 1983–2018 eruptive activity—remain below detection limits for SO2. Read more of the update at
