In the East rift zone of Kilauea, the production of lava from the fountains on fissure 8 remains constant, although in a slight slowdown.

The casting is channeled in a open channel, with few overflows, but it stops south of the crater Kapoho to enter and move within the molten heart of thick lava flows a'a, over a wide area on both sides.

In Chile, Sernageomin currently monitors no less than 45 volcanoes.

Among volcanoes in volcanic alert:

- the Nevados complex of Chillan is on alert Naranja

- the Lascar in the northern zone, the Planchón-Peteroa complex, the Puyehue-Cordon caulle complex, the Osorno and the Copahue in the southern zone, are on Amarilla alert.

There will be nocturnal glow in Copahue and Villarica when the vision is clear.

At Villarica, the lava remains deep in the pit crater from mid-December 2017, and the low heat allows the accumulation of snow and ice at the summit, in this winter in the southern hemisphere.
