The eruption of Pavlof Volcano has greatly diminished in intensity over the past day… Seismic activity remains elevated at levels above background and over the past 24 hours has been characterized by occasional short-duration tremor bursts, likely associated with the low-level ash emissions.

Although the intensity of the eruption has diminished, it is possible for conditions to change at any time and more significant ash emissions may resume with little to no warning. —AVO

KILAUEA VOLCANO (VNUM #332010)
19°25’16” N, 155°17’13” W, Summit Elevation 4,091 ft (1,247 m)
Alert Level: WATCH
Current Aviation Color Code: ORANGE

Activity Summary: Kīlauea continues to erupt in a relatively steady fashion at both the summit, where there is a circulating lava lake, and from its East Rift Zone, where surface lava flows are active northeast of the Puʻu ʻŌʻō vent. The East Rift Zone lava flow currently poses no threat to nearby communities. Earthquake rates and seismic tremor are at background levels. —HVO
