🇺🇸 Kilauea Eruption: Spectacular Lava Fountains in Hawaii

🗓 On May 25, 2025, the 23rd eruptive episode began at the Halemaʻumaʻu crater floor of Kilauea Volcano, one of the most active volcanoes on Earth.

🌋 The eruption started at around 4:15 PM local time at the northern vent, which initially showed minimal signs of activity. By 4:50 PM, however, it was producing powerful dome-shaped lava fountains reaching heights of over 1,000 feet (around 300 meters).

🔥 At approximately 5:15 PM, the southern vent also became active, though with less intense fountains rising to about 230 feet (70 meters).

According to the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO), the situation remains dynamic and is being closely monitored. Further changes in activity are possible in the coming hours or days.
