HONOLULU (AP) — The on-and-off eruption that’s been dazzling residents and visitors on Hawaii’s Big Island for nearly a year resumed Tuesday as Kilauea volcano sent fountains of lava soaring 400 feet into the air.
Hawaii's Kilauea volcano, one of the most active in the world, is about to erupt again, according to the United States Geological Survey.
Kilauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world, erupted for five hours on Nov. 9, creating a unique whirlwind phenomena.
Contrary to popular belief, it’s not the big-name volcanoes like Yellowstone and Mount Etna in Sicily that pose the greatest threat. A UK volcanologist argued that the biggest danger could come from hidden volcanoes that appear dormant and are barely monitored.
