Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano, one of Earth’s most active, is putting on a fiery show 🌋—again! The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory confirmed a new eruption began this week, with lava fountains shooting up to 1,000 feet (300 meters) in some areas. Talk about nature’s fireworks! 🎇
This marks Kilauea’s first eruption since December, and scientists are keeping a close eye on the activity. While the lava is contained within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park for now, officials warn visitors to stay alert and follow safety guidelines. No major threats to communities have been reported, but ashfall could affect nearby areas.
Kilauea has been erupting on and off for decades, but its 2018 eruption caused widespread destruction, reshaping landscapes and displacing residents. This time, the spectacle is drawing both awe and caution. 🌍✨
For travelers planning trips to Hawaii: Check local advisories before heading to the park. Volcanic views are epic, but safety first! 🧳📸
