Aloha Katie,

Rumors became a reality at midnight, as red flares of molten magma lit up the Summer’s night sky. This eruption is off to a mild start traveling only a few hundred yards.

There is no immediate threat to human life or buildings. It’s in a remote area Southwest of Pele’s main residence in Kilauea’s crater. We’re delighted to be upwind and far removed from the eruption site. 🥰🥰🥰

A similar eruption took place in the same location in December 1974. The flow only lasted six hours. We’ve just learned that this colorful display of magma has stopped. 😀🌈🍀Will the party resume? 🐒🙃💚

The volcanic gasses or sulfur dioxide SO2 are low and present no threat.
🌸💚🌸

We’re wishing you an abundance of sunshine and gardening A-lo-HA!
💖💖💖
