Webcam Notes
Added new frame (L1) to capture the new gas vent on the east wall dimensions of crater are approximately 400 m long (left to right in webcam) and 250 m wide (straight ahead). The camera is operational 24/7 and faithfully records the dark of night if there is no incandescence. Winged insects occasionally take refuge on the glass in front of the camera. See the "eruption update" (link above) for the latest volcano information.

This panorama is a composite of three images from a research camera positioned on the north rim of Puʻu ʻŌʻō's crater. The images update every 15 minutes. At times, clouds and volcanic fume obscure visibility. The camera is subject to sporadic breakdown, and its remote location makes immediate repair impossible. Cameras can be where people should not. Puʻu ʻŌʻō is off-limits to the general public because of multiple and significant volcanic hazards.
