A lava lake within Halema‘uma‘u produced nighttime glow that was visible via HVO’s Webcam during the past week. As of Thursday, April 3, the lava level for the week had been relatively steady, generally staying around 46–48 m (151–157 ft) below the rim of the Overlook crater.

On Kīlauea’s East Rift Zone, the Kahauale‘a 2 flow continued to be active northeast of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō. The active flow front was 8.2 km (5.1 miles) northeast of the vent on Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō when last measured on Friday, March 21, and no significant advancement has occurred since. Webcam images indicate that small, lava-sparked forest fires continue to burn.

There were no felt earthquakes in the past week on the island of Hawai‘i.
