USGS October 16: Multiple overflows from the south vent were observed through the night starting at 10:16 PM HST. There were 15 overflows that lasted less than 5 minutes and were small, advancing less than 100 feet (30 m) from the vent. Then at 5:10 a.m. HST, a high-volume overflow coated the entire area within 300 feet (100 m) of the vent with pahoehoe in 10 minutes. This was followed by the current south vent overflows which began and 5:56 a.m. HST and continue at this time. A small dome fountain within the vent has been feeding multiple channels of pahoehoe that cover the near vent area and extend near a half a mile (about a kilometer) from the vent. The volume of lava and the size of the dome fountain appear to wax and wane over time, but continues to feed vigorous overflow channels. Spatter from all three vents (north, south, and west) was also observed overnight, as well consistent glow and occasional flames.
