Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park visitor information:.

Additional messages will be issued as needed. Next Notice: HVO will issue daily Kīlauea updates. The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) continues to closely monitor Kīlauea volcano. Significant hazards also remain around Halemaʻumaʻu from crater wall instability, ground cracking, and rockfalls that can be enhanced by earthquakes within the area closed to the public. For discussion of Kīlauea hazards, please see. Local concentrations of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) and/or hydrogen sulfide (H 2S) may persist in downwind areas, and residents may notice odors of these gases occasionally. Hazard Analysis: Levels of volcanic gases (sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide) can remain locally hazardous even when Kīlauea is not erupting. Measurements from continuous gas monitoring stations downwind of Puʻuʻōʻō in the middle East Rift Zone-the site of 1983–2018 eruptive activity-have been below detection limits for SO 2, indicating that SO 2 emissions from Puʻuʻōʻō are negligible. No unusual activity has been noted along the middle and lower sections of Kīlauea's East Rift Zone. We continue to closely monitor the summit and both rift zones. In the Southwest Rift Zone, seismicity has also remained low over the past 24 hours, with only a handful of events (smaller than M2). Kīlauea's middle and lower East Rift Zones remain relatively seismically quiet. Rift Zone Observations: Seismicity in Kīlauea's upper East Rift Zone in the past 24 hours remained low, with only about 7 events (including one M3.2 at 17 miles depth). The information statement released on October 23, 2023, provides additional information and context related to recent unrest at Kīlauea's summit: Ī map summarizing recent unrest around Kilauea’s summit (activity from Novemto January 8, 2024) can be found here: This type of earthquake activity is not being detected at this time and there are currently no signs of an imminent eruption at Kīlauea, however the volcano's summit region remains at a state of heightened unrest. Previous summit eruptions have been marked by similar swarms of earthquakes caused by magma moving towards the surface 1–2 hours before the appearance of lava.

The swarm of earthquakes and rapid inflation that occurred south of the caldera on December 29 and 30 indicated that magma was being intruded at relatively shallow depths. Field measurements indicated an SO 2 emission rate of approximately 80 tonnes per day on December 28, which was similar to measurements in October, November, and early December. Sulfur dioxide (SO 2) gas emission rates remain low. Summit tilt showed mild inflation over the past 24 hours (about a couple microradians). Kīlauea's summit region remains at a high level of inflation relative tilt is above the level reached prior to the most recent eruption in September 2023, and it is higher than at any time since the 2018 eruption. Seismicity has not reached the levels that immediately preceded recent summit eruptions at Kīlauea. Periods of increased shallow seismicity can be expected to continue during repressurization of the summit magma reservoir, which has been ongoing since the end of the September 2023 eruption. The region south and southwest of the caldera remains quiet. Summit Observations: Over the past 24 hours, seismicity in Kīlauea's summit region slightly increased, with approximately 20 small-magnitude earthquakes (less than M2) recorded beneath the caldera. No unusual activity has been noted along the middle and lower sections of Kīlauea’s East Rift Zone. Unrest may continue to wax and wane with fluctuating input of magma to the area, and eruptive activity could occur in the near future with little or no warning.

Over the past day seismicity has been low in the summit region, upper East Rift Zone, and Southwest Rift Zone.
