A fountain of lava was spewing from a Hawaii volcano Tuesday in the latest episode of an eruption that has paused and resumed. Fountains from a vent of the Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island grew to more than 250 feet (76.2 meters) high Monday night, according to the latest status report from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory. On Tuesday morning, a webcam showed vigorous streams of red lava. The eruption began Dec. 23 in a crater at the summit of Kilauea, one of the world's most active volcanoes.
