Two days ago, the series of flows into the ocean stopped.  Lava
production of about 4.9 cubic meters/second continues at the vent,
but apparently the lava tube system somehow became blocked.

It's likely that one or more surface flows will re-commence, perhaps up
near the 1,000' elevation or so.  However, in the meantime the most
visible part of the (48th stage) of the eruption seems to be over.
