Crater collapse sends lava spewing from Hawaii volcano
Lava from Hawaii's Kilauea Volcano was shooting as high as 80 feet in the air Sunday after the collapse of the floor of the volcano's Pu'u 'O'o crater a day earlier.
Hawaii Volcano Observatory scientists said the floor of the crater dropped 377 feet over almost three hours on Saturday and a fissure developed between the Pu'u 'O'o and Napau craters on Kilauea.
The lava lake on Kilauea's summit has drop since the collapse, scientists said in a press release Sunday.
The volcano observatory was set up a webcam to provide updated still images of the erupting fissure and the Puu Oo crater.
Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and perhaps the world's most active, according to the volcano observatory. The current activity is a continuation of an eruption that began in 1983.
Kilauea, the home of Hawaii's goddess of fire Pele, has erupted 34 times since 1952.

Here we see proof positive of the urgent need to rescind longstanding environmental protections and cripple the EPA. The earth belching fire? Don't you see? This planet is out to get us. We'd better do unto it before it does unto us...
And now let us pause for a brief prayer. "Our Reagan, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name..."
I can't believe the Wesboro fanatics don't jump at the chance to protest here.
Dude you're totally wrong there. The government could stop earthquakes, lava flows, and generally make everything all better if we just give them more power and drop another trillion on a union pet project! Get real man, this is the home state of the glistening one we're talking about here. If he can't do it then nobody can. He should go wave his hard earned nobel peace prize at it. That would totally do the trick.
Actually they can. Since the town of Hilo is so close to the volcano, they've done it before. Basically you get a bunch of fire hoses and such, point them at the lava flow and push start. They managed to hold it off before.
Get real. Nature wins over government intervention any time. I can't believe you want to blame this on Obama – just like the illegal wars that bankrupted our country, GITMO, The economic collapse of 2008, etc.... Get over your hate brah' – it's misplaced and really ugly!
Can't we spend more on the STAR WARS missle defense system? I'm sure with the right marketing campaign, using Rove and the like, we could get Colin Powell to convince the US that the Lava is a threat to our airspace!
@Joseph: Shame those Westboro bottom feeders weren't there amongst the flying lava. 😀
reagan is probably in hell.lol
Reagan is definitely in hell.
hypocrite
Dude. The planet's been out to get us from the start. It's not like volcanoes are something new in geology.
Pricing around the nation. Are regions with lower pricing a form of "whiskey for votes?" EXAMINE THE REAGAN WHO CREATED THE TRICKLE HEAVENS MAPS of heaven. Ann arbor michigan must be a truly difficult petrol delivery...or is it those Tea party taxes? The cost of beer is more consistant than the price of water. In fact.. Beer is cheaper than water.. How is that possible? Lol.
stop giving tax exemptions to religious bsginizations..... stop taking money out of our Hands for these fantasies
I don't understand why CNN uses a meteorologist to discuss the events occurring at Kilauea volcano when there are any number of GEOLOGISTS who could actually explain what is going on. CNN did this also for the Christchurch earthquake two weeks ago.
Agreed. NZ hasn't gotten 1/8 the coverage of Hati.
vulcanologists would be more appropriate.
@ Jendify
Where is Spock when we need him?
A while back, CNN disbanded and dismissed its excellent science reporting team. Possibly their meteorologists are now the most science-savvy persons on the CNN staff now. Sad.
It's a shame that CNN got rid of all of their crack scientists and replaced them with Fox News sensationalist reporters.
Before, we'd get facts, follow-up reports and in depth coverage, coverage so excellent that intelligence services globally used CNN for an information source!
Now, we get hype and a few pictures.
I end up having to go to the local news, including TV2 in New Zealand to track the progress of their recovery.
what else would spew from a volcano? cheese wiz? what the hell do i come to this website for? it's impulse, at this point.
"...And it looks like it's going to be a real 'scorcher' out there today..."
Earthquakes, bad weather phenomena, massive bird death and fish kill, wars and rumors of war volvanic eruptions.
Watch out! I'm COMING!!!1
I hope a volcano tour is on the list of activities in Hawaii. Even if lava is not shooting into the air, the national park on the big island (where you are going) is spectacular.
this country being what it is today will find a way to fine Hawaii for enviromental problems caused by this
Yeah, who ever is responsible for that park should be fired!! How could they let this happen??
I blame Mothra! Where is Godzilla when you need him?
Did you see the gas clouds? Clearly it is the smog monster.
As I watch tv this a.m. about our economy and proposed cuts I can't help but note that no mention has been made recently about cutting back on the single most expense we have- the military. If we stopped supporting terrorists by arming every one in the world, we just might have more resources here. No one mentions corporate welfare. Multibillion international corporations are not paying any taxes. Billionaires won't invest here because of high labor costs... who do they think the middle class is? We're gutting the middle class at the same time we're ripping our safety net for the poor and elderly apart. Labor unions, while they may have gone too far in some instances, are the only thing that protect workers from tyranny by big corporations. The workers are demonized... Since when was making $45K "excessive"? At the same time when ceo's are making 400 times what their workers are making. There is major insanity and greed going on.
Foolish men choose to live on Volcano....and then complain how dangerous it is.
Joe vs The Volcano
only this time, the volcano wins
The volcano will always win.
Yeah, but in Hawaii's case Madam Pele eventually gets them. When that happens you have two options, let it burn or move the building. Many people have tried to build houses in Kilauea's path and so far nobody has succeed for a long time.
Andrea, in Iceland, they DID manage to stop a volcano from consuming a town. And THEIR volcanoes are FAR less well behaved than Hawaii's volcanoes.
It took millions of gallons of water, continuously poured on the lava, but eventually, they got it to stop.
@ name*Mary Fox: here here! just throw the GOP and their billionaire bedmates into the volcanos. they are killing the working class! as u said, they are gutting the middle class who carries on their backs the weight of the rich man's greed. the Koch bros and their like will take none of their ill-gotten gains with them when they die and go to hell!
Funny how no one ever seems to notice that the vast majority of Billionaires and corporate execs are DEMOCRATS. Soros anyone? Bill Gates? Which billionaire is republican again? Is there one? That should tell you something.
Next time you think that the Republicans are the only party for the rich, better check your kool-aid. You want someone for the middle class, you have to go with Conservatives regardless of party affiliation. As it is, the liberals have successfully brainwashed generations of citizens into believing their drivel and you see the world around you as the result.
REALLY?!?! You guys are trying to politically hijack a story about a VOLCANO? I hear Pele was an Obama supporter ... but she's also a huge advocate of second amendment rights.
"The lava lake on Kilauea's summit has drop since the collapse" Is "drop" some crazy meterological-volcano term, if is this sentence in need of editing?
Haha looks like I needed an editor, too.
As I recall, Pele also endorsed Obama's birth certificate, stating that anyone having a problem with her sworn word can feel free to step up to her and discuss it.
Really now! Politics on a story about a VOLCANO!
Nature at work...the ever changing Earth.
Gaia is suffering from IBS
I don't understand how an article about a volcano leads to comments about politics. Are there people that just sit around and use anything as an excuse to attack the other camp?
I'm sure that Democrats and Republicans alike, if they would take a minute to look outside of their personal sphere of reality, would agree that the sight of the Kilauea volcano spewing forth the newest land on earth is truly awe-inspiring and has absolutely nothing to do with politics. Get OUT people, see the rest of the world! Experience the grandeur nature has to offer. Listen to people from other cultures. Be inspired by something other than hatred and fear.
But to answer: yes, Robert, there are people who can do nothing but post political rhetoric, thanks in no small part to the 24 hour political campaign ad that is Fox News and its Australian demogogue, Rupert Murdoch.
not to mention the racist joke against white people.ipeople talking about the volcano saying new zealand didnt get as muuch coverage.ah poor flood earthquake victims dont have any face time in the media?mcluhan is a racist.y we talking white and black over a volcano?idiots. americas is racist because colored people didnt get enuff news coverage?ahhh,every racist was enslaved some point thru out time.ggerman vikings were almost wiped out during the crusades..u dont see germans being racist towards roman catholics.come on this racism is dum and it seems alot of black people cant get over a part of time that happened 200 some years ago and that they werent even a part of.this generation has it made compared to the ladder.love each other we all under the same sun,and the same son of god
And all of those poor trees in the path...
Six paragraphs and you can't post it without a mistake????
"The volcano observatory was set up a webcam to provide updated still images of the erupting fissure and the Puu Oo crater."
and another mistake:
"The lava lake on Kilauea's summit has drop since the collapse, scientists said in a press release Sunday."
Get a life! Do you have nothing better to do than look for spelling & grammar errors? Boring!!!!
I truly believe this is the fault of the Republicans. They want to be in charge of everything. Gas is almost 4$ per gallon. How much money do they stand to make now that they set this volcano off if people travel to Hawaii to see it? This is NOT nature Robert...this is the Tea Party Republicans and their scandalous ways.
its funny u metion that..look up haarp machine
bring out the hotdogs or would it be slices of SPAM in Hawaii ?????
The lava gods are angry that Two and a Half Men was cancelled.
Actually, this is their celebration!
