The recent deflation pattern at the volcano over the last 48 hours reverted into an inflation in the midnight of 20 June.
This was followed by the ground uplift by approx. 1.5 microradians associated with the lava lake level by 3 meters indicating a rising batch of magma towards the surface.
The lava continues to keep the ooze out from the western fissure vent active along the southern and northern rim of the crater floor within the Halemaʻumaʻu lava lake.
