Special Weather Statement
Issued: 12:55 AM Jun. 1, 2026 – National Weather Service
...KILAUEA EPISODE 48 PRECURSORY ACTIVITY HAS BEGUN... WHAT...An episodic fountaining eruption is expected within the Kilauea summit caldera. The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory has indicated a potential eruption window between now and June 1st. Fountaining episodes typically last less than 12 hours but ash can remain in the air longer depending on wind and weather. IMPACTS...If an eruption occurs, varying levels of ash, Pele's hair, and other lightweight tephra may fall downwind of the eruption. Smaller particles can travel farther from the eruption site and may affect communities at greater distances. Should a higher plume develop during this episode, south- southwesterly winds aloft could result in an easterly or northeasterly dispersion of ashfall instead. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... If you live downwind of the Kilauea summit, or plan to visit the summit area, stay informed about current volcanic activity and weather conditions. Be prepared to take precautions if needed, such as disconnecting water catchment systems. Follow all guidance from the National Park Service and the County of Hawaii. Be aware that road or park closures may occur. This statement will be issued daily and updated as needed. && For more information on the status of Kilauea Volcano, please see; https://volcanoes.usgs.gov/volcanoes/kilauea/volcano-updates; For health and safety recommendations, please visit the Hawaii; Interagency Vog Information Dashboard at https://vog.ivhhn.org; Submit your reports and photos of ashfall from eruptions to the USGS; Hawaiian Volcano Observatory at https://hawaiiash.science/report_form
