(NECN: Hawaii) - Lava continues to pour from the Kilauea Volcano on Hawaii's Big Island.
The spectacular fountain of lava was flowing from one large fissure, with another smaller fountain nearby.
Scientists at the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said the lava had also once again started flowing into the ocean in the middle east rift zone and flow field.
Over the last few days, lava flows threatened the only remaining homes in the Royal Gardens housing area.
Kilauea's eruption, which began 25 years ago, has already destroyed 66 homes and other structures in the area.
About five houses are still standing, but only two homeowners remain.
