Volcano Alert Level for Hawaii's Kilauea volcano was raised from watch to warning at a sudden notice, as it began erupting after a five decade long gap. The Aviator Color Code in the region changed from orange to red, based on the severity of the eruption, that began at 6.30 am (ET), according to a Fox Weather report.
Alert levels in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park have been raised in the early hours on Monday while the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO), which earlier placed the Kīlauea volcano under observation levels, has now upped the ante and gone on full alert mode.

The volcano did not erupt in nearly fifty years, according to Fox Weather's report but began showing the first signs of eruption within the National Park premises, nearly a mile south of Kīlauea caldera, north of the Koa’e and Hilina Pali Road. The volcanic glow was observed through monitoring devices like webcams around the National Park premises, indicating that the lava is flowing out from a rather dormant volcano that has not seen eruption for the last 50 years, the last one seen in December, 1974, according to reports.

The HVO is currently monitoring the area minutely and will be providing real-time updates regarding the volcanic activity in the region. Meanwhile, there are fears of toxic volcanic gas being released in the atmosphere due to this sudden eruption, that
