Hawaii’s Kilauea began erupting inside its summit crater Thursday, the U.S. Geological Survey said, less than one month after the volcano and its larger neighbor Mauna Loa stopped releasing lava.
Earlier Thursday, the U.S. Geological Survey raised the alert level for Kilauea due to signs that magma was moving below the summit surface, an indication that the volcano might erupt.

The U.S. Geological Survey said on Thursday, Jan. 5, 2023 that it has raised its alert level for Hawaii's Kilauea volcano due to signs that magma is moving below the surface of the mountain's summit.
During the twin eruption, visitors to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park were able to see lava from both eruptions at the same time. The observatory planned to continue monitoring the volcanoes for signs of renewed activity. Hon previously said there is generally a three-month “cooling off” period before scientists consider an eruption to be complete.
