Hawaiian Volcano Observatory: Episode 29 of the ongoing Halemaʻumaʻu eruption ended abruptly at 7:54 p.m. HST on June 29 after nearly 11 hours of continuous fountaining.
Waning north vent fountains stopped completely at 7:54 p.m. HST, several hours after reaching maximum heights up to 1,100 ft (340 m). Flames were visible at the south vent for a few minutes afterwards. High fountains produced approximately 1.6 billion gallons (6.2 million cubic meters) of lava covering 80% of the crater floor.
Since fountaining ended, volcanic gas emissions have greatly decreased. Lava flows from this episode on the floor of Halemaʻumaʻu within the southern part of Kaluapele (Kīlauea caldera) may continue to exhibit slow movement or incandescence as they cool and solidify over the coming days.
