Kīlauea summit eruption pauses for 3rd time

Kīlauea eruption continues with spectacular lava fountains reaching 100 feet

There was no visible flow of lava back into the vent after the pause, and the gradual drop in lava level is more likely because of loss of gas bubbles — summit lavas are 50% or more bubbles — or very slow leaking of lava into the vent beneath the crust.
