Kilauea volcano erupted

Lava fountains up to 400 m, eruption of 11 million cubic meters

The 42nd eruptive phase has been recorded at Kilauea volcano. Two craters, northern and southern, ejected lava fountains up to 400 meters high for ten hours. As a result, about 11 million cubic meters of magma were ejected. The maximum ejection rate reached approximately 770 cubic meters per second—an extreme value rarely achieved at other volcanoes. The resulting sulfur dioxide reached a volume of up to 100,000 tons.

Summary:

Kilauea volcano erupted fountains up to 400 m high, releasing 11 million cubic meters of magma and 100,000 tons of sulfur dioxide.
