A lava lake within Halema‘uma‘u produced nighttime glow that was visible via HVO’s Webcam during the past week. The lava lake level varied between 30 and 40 m (100-130 ft) below the rim of the Overlook crater.
On KÄ«lauea’s East Rift Zone, the Kahauale‘a 2 flow remains active. The flow front stalled at 8.8 km (5.5 miles) northeast of its vent on Pu‘u ‘Ō‘Šin mid-May. On Tuesday, June 24, the most distant active flows were approximately 7.1 km (4.4 miles) northeast of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘Å. In addition, several small, brief lava flows erupted from spatter cones within the Pu‘u ‘Ō‘Šcrater.
One earthquake was reported felt in the past week across the Island of Hawai‘i. On Friday, June 20, 2014, at 10:25 p.m., HST, a magnitude-3.1 earthquake occurred 5 km (3 mi) south-southwest of Volcano village at a depth of 3 km (2 mi).
