The effusive-explosive eruption of the volcano continues.

Near-constant vulcanian explosions continue to take place from the summit vent that reached 15,000 ft-16,000 ft (4,600 m-4,900 m) altitude and drifted into west-southwest-northwest directions.

The lava flow continues to be active on the northeastern flank. Incandescence is being observed within the summit vent.
