Skies Glow Red After Hawaii Volcano Eruption


Plumes of smoke turned the Hawaiian skies red after the Kilauea volcano on state’s Big Island erupted, Sunday, December 20. ––––––– READ MORE: Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island erupted late Sunday. The U.S. Geological Survey said lava was erupting from a fissure in a wall of the Halema’uma’u crater. The agency said the lava was cascading into the deepest section of the crater, with a previous water lake there being replaced “with a growing lava lake.” A magnitude-4.4 earthquake also struck the area shortly after the eruption began. A 2018 Kilauea eruption destroyed more than 700 homes. ––––––– LINK: https://www.voanews.com/usa/kilauea-v...
