Tiltmeters at the summit of Kīlauea Volcano continue to record the

deflationary trend, the summit lava lake level in Overlook crater
dropped about 2 m (6.5 ft) per hour during the day. The lake level has
dropped an estimated 220 m (722 ft) since the collapse of Puʻu ʻŌʻō
crater on April 30.

Hawaiian Volcano Observatory confirms that active venting of lava and
hazardous fumes continues in Leilani Estates Subdivision. Since the
onset of this eruption, a total of 10 fissures have emerged, and 26
homes have been destroyed.
