Aerial view looking southward shows wide path of pahoehoe flows (shiny surface, foreground) that reached the ocean about 2 weeks after a 2-3 day pause in the eruption. This new entry area is about 300-400 m west (right) of the long-established east Kamokuna entry (still active as shown by the left steam plume rising behind a littoral cone, which is fed by a lava tube).
