The Halemaʻumaʻu eruption of Kīlauea is paused. Summit inflation continued yesterday until 9:30pm, when weak deflation began. Deflation continues today. Glow at both the south and north vents was visible in the webcams overnight. The forecast for the onset of episode 42 lava fountaining has been adjusted to February 14 through 17, though continued deflation may delay the episode onset further.
