Scientists say last year's Tonga volcanic eruption produced the fastest underwater currents ever recorded. HPR's Derrick Malama has more in the Pacific News Minute.

Kīlauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world, is erupting after a two-month pause, displaying glowing lava that is a safe distance from people and structures in a national park on the Big Island.

Public comment is being sought on the draft environmental review to restore roadways and water lines in Puna, following the 2018 Kīlauea eruption. An estimated $88 million in infrastructure restoration projects are being planned by Hawaiʻi County in partnership with the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Scientists have done further research into a huge volcanic explosion that ripped through part of Tonga early last year. They have found the magnitude was equivalent to the most powerful nuclear device ever detonated by the United States. HPR’s Derrick Malama has more in the Pacific News Minute.

It's been just over a year since a massive volcanic explosion rocked the Pacific island of Tonga. The eruption created a huge plume of ash and water that stretched more than halfway to space. HPR's Derrick Malama has more in the Pacific News Minute.
