Kīlauea Volcano in Hawaii erupted on September 2, sending spectacular lava fountains soaring 300 to 500 feet into the sky from the Halemaumau Crater. This event, which lasted for over 13 hours, marks the 32nd eruptive episode since December, showcasing the volcano's ongoing activity. The eruption released significant amounts of lava and volcanic gases, including sulfur dioxide, leading to the formation of vog, a volcanic smog that can affect air quality. Local hazards such as Pele’s hair (thin strands of volcanic glass), rockfalls, and unstable crater rims were also observed within the vicinity of the volcano.
