Overnight, lava continued to cascade from the west vent, feeding the new lava-lake at the summit of Kilauea volcano. There have been no major changes in the week-long eruption or in the lava level. Hawaiian Volcano Observatory field crews measured the lava lake as 588 feet deep on Monday. Which is about the same as it was yesterday.
