US: Kilauea volcano erupts again in Hawaii

Wed 25 Dec 2024, 11:43:01
Kilauea, one of the world’s most active volcanoes, started erupting again on Hawaii’s Big Island. The US Geological Survey (USGS) Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said that elevated earthquake activity beneath the volcano’s summit began at approximately 2:00 a.m. local time yesterday.

The USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said it is elevating Kilauea’s volcano alert level from advisory to warning. It also raised its aviation



colour code from yellow to red as it assesses the eruption and related hazards. The USGS noted that high levels of volcanic gas, primarily water vapour, carbon dioxide, and sulphur dioxide are the primary hazards of concern, as this hazard can have far-reaching effects down-wind.

It’s the second time the volcano has erupted this year. The most recent Kilauea eruption was in September.
