The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reported this morning that a new fissure 24 opened. It is between Kupono and Nohea Street in Leilani Estates and is not threatening any structures at this time.
Lava flow crossed into PGV property overnight but has not impacted any wells. A special task force headed by Tom Travis continues to work to make the wells safe and to prevent any threats to the public from developing. At this time there is no hydrogen sulfide detected. The public will be kept informed of the situation.
Volcanic gases and vog emissions may increase in areas down wind of the vents in the lower east rift zone.
