...VERY LIGHT ASHFALL IS EXPECTED FROM KILAUEA VOLCANO THROUGH AT
LEAST 6 PM HST...

Halemaumau Crater on the Kilauea Volcano Summit at 19.4N 155.3W
produced a burst of volcanic emissions around 4:44 AM HST this
morning. This eruption was observed on infra-red satellite
imagery. Radar indicates winds will cause any ash emissions to 
drift towards the west-southwest direction this morning.

Communities in the Puna, Kau and South Kona Districts may be 
affected.

Avoid excessive exposure to ash which is an eye and respiratory
irritant. Those with respiratory sensitivities should take extra
precaution to minimize exposure.
