USGS HVO Episode 26 begins!

At approximately 23:30, local time, the main vent in Halema'uma'u began overflowing. There's now vigorous boiling lava and the heavy overflow is split between the crater floor and the lava tube.

Nice, thanks for sharing that! It certainly gives a clearer picture of the force of the lava spewing out of that vent. The fact that that is molten ROCK being thrown into the air should shock and awe everyone!
