Video shared to Twitter by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) shows lava fountains in the deep lava lake at Halema‘uma‘u crater. According to the USGS, the video from October 4 shows “the dominant fountain at the west vent from two different angles and the smaller fountain source emerging through the lava lake.”
