Kilauea Volcano on Hawaii's Big Island begins erupting, after three-month pause

One of the most active volcanoes in the world has begun erupting after a three-month pause.

A glow was detected in webcam images from Kilauea's summit early on Wednesday morning, indicating that an eruption was occurring within the Halemaumau crater.

The images from the peak on Hawaii's Big Island show fissures at the base of the crater generating lava flows on the crater floor's surface, the observatory said.
