Scientists said lava supply to the Fissure 3 vent ceased on Saturday.
/Gray News) - The U.S. Geological Survey reported Tuesday morning that the volcanoes Mauna Loa and Kilauea were no longer erupting.“There’s no historical analog here in Hawaii for a Mauna Loa rift eruption pausing in the middle and then restarting, so we feel pretty confident that this eruption has in fact paused and is probably over,” Hawaiian Volcanoes Observatory Scientist-In-Charge Ken Hon said.
While the eruption has ended, scientists said spots of incandescence may remain near the vent, along channels and at the flow front for days or weeks as the lava flows cool. Meanwhile, USGS reported that Kilauea is also no longer erupting. The alert level was downgraded to advisory/yellow as well.
