The pulse of increased seismicity starting at around 10 a.m. Wednesday and another pulse starting at around 4 a.m. today. As of 8:45 a.m., Hawaiian Volcano Observatory officials reported the pulse was still ongoing.
According to Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, the seismicity and elevated ground deformation rates suggests magma may be slowly moving out of the summit storage region. Additional seismic pulses or swarms may occur with little or no warning and result in either continued intrusion of magma or eruption of lava.
