Oooh! Lava lake rising to the brim at Halema'uma'u Crater in Hawaii.




It's gonna overflow and send the scientists screaming!   Pele be angry!


The slowly rising lava lake at Kīlauea's summit was very close to the rim of the Overlook crater, and floor of Halema‘uma‘u Crater. This afternoon the lava lake was roughly 6 m (20 feet) from the rim. This photo was taken from the Jaggar Museum overlook, which had superb views tonight.

Close, so very close...




Level on April 4th.
