Kīlauea eruptive activity remains confined within Kaluapele (the summit caldera), although persistent fountaining coupled with Kona winds has resulted in Pele’s hair reported in some public areas within the National Park and in nearby communities.

Compilation of videos taken of the Kīlauea summit eruption in Halemaʻumaʻu on January 17, 2025. Several clips show lava fountaining at the vents located in the southwest part of Kaluapele (the summit caldera), as well as lava flowing out of the south vent. The last clip shows a wind vortex (lavanado) within the caldera. As the vortex moves a short distance on the caldera floor, incandescent pieces of crust are torn off and picked up into the air.
