Description
Lava Fissure Nubmer 8 is sending out a fountain of lava 250 feet and more into the air. It is rapidly becoming a pu'u. The fountain from this pu'u shoots into the air more than 250 feet at times and is visible from the road I live on more than 20 miles away. On this night, the glow from the eruption lights the clouds in glorious reds, while the lights from Hilo Town are visible in the foreground.
