exploded. On the night of
February 6-7, such a collapse began with the slow but steady subsidence of the crater floor, accompanied by muffled rumbling. In the early hours of the morning, a six- to nine-meter-deep depression formed on the cracked surface from which streams of liquid lava escaped, the unsolidified remnants of the 90-meter-deep lava lake formed in 1952 and isolated from the surface by more recent lava. As it reached a depth of thirty meters, the collapse suddenly accelerated at 11:51. Within nine minutes, the depression was 300 meters in diameter and 90 meters deep. A circular fissure opened in the upper part of the rim, releasing large quantities of lava from the 1952 eruption. Until February 11, this

A depression 120 meters long, 90 meters wide, and 30 meters deep forms in 25 minutes to the northeast of the first two, at the foot of the crater wall. These collapses in the Halemaʻumaʻu will represent a total volume of 22 × 106 cubic meters, or half the volume of lava emitted during the 1952 eruption that formed the lava lake, but they will not be followed by any further manifestations, unlike the 1924 eruption.

637:. This behavior change is interpreted as the arrival on the surface of magma from the Kīlauea magma chamber, mixed with that present beneath Kapoho since at least 1955. This exogenous magma is thought to have originated from the 12 × 106 cubic meters remnant of the late 1959 eruption of Kīlauea Iki, which made its way under the east rift to Kapoho. This new lava headed northeast and continued to advance into the Pacific Ocean just north of Cape Kumukahi until February 13.

In its path are the Warm Springs, hot springs that provide a place to relax and picnic, which the lava eventually reaches and fills around midnight on the night of January 17-18. This part of the flow, continuing its course, reached and advanced into Higashi Pond from the southwest, before the two lava fronts met and finally filled the pond, whose water had completely evaporated.

An initial dike between Kapoho and the Puʻu Kukae volcanic cone was built between January 19 and 20. Measuring between 4.5 and 6 meters high, it was poorly located, rising between 6 and 12 meters below the natural threshold between Puʻu Kukae and the

except a few buildings southwest of the site of the former settlement, next to the lava flow. The roads have been retraced, with the coastal road crossing the lava flow from one end to the other and the road to the Cape
Kumukahi lighthouse via Kapoho following the old route. Part of the lava flow, notably the mass of tephra formed on January 27, has since been exploited as a slag quarry not far from Koaʻe.

Puʻu Kukae caused the lava to seep into the volcanic cone of loosely consolidated ash. A 150-meter-long fragment was torn from the cone and floated to the surface of the flow, ten meters above its original position. Managing to pass under the dike and emerge on the other side, the lava continued its progression south-eastwards, reaching the school, which was destroyed between 10 a.m. and 12.30 p.m., and the

These earthquakes gained in intensity the following day, just before 6 a.m., allowing residents to start feeling them. They triggered the replay of two parallel faults, the

The flow, which had reached the gates of the village, began to enter the town as a result of the collapse of the southern flank of the slag cone, which had discharged large quantities of lava in the direction of the houses. The

It was accompanied by small earthquakes from January 23 onwards, up to several hundred a day, caused by fracturing of the rock surrounding the magma chamber due to changes in pressure stress.

When the eruption ended on
February 19, the 122 × 106 cubic meters of lava and the 7.5 × 106 cubic meters of tephra released covered an area of over 10 square kilometers, including 2 square kilometers of new land reclaimed from the sea, bringing its volcanic explosivity index to 2. These figures make

February 5. This formation is not new, since such fumaroles had already appeared in the same spot during the eruption of May 1924, just before the crater collapsed and

After a final burst in which the fountains reached a height of 300 meters, they gradually dried up and stopped spewing lava on

As the lava advances, it threatens and then destroys infrastructure, the first being the coastal road in the early hours of the eruption, and landscapes such as
Higashi Pond. The authorities therefore attempted to divert or stop the flow in certain places. A first attempt was made on January 17 to
