On Monday afternoon, there were small, sporadic spatter fountains reaching 15 feet (5 meters) to 30 feet (10 meters) high. Spattering continued to increase during the night and into early Tuesday, the observatory said in a status report.
No residential areas have been threatened by the eruption. People have been flocking to the park for views of the fiery show.
Each episode has produced fountains ranging in height, with some reaching 600 feet (180 meters).
The length of time for each fountaining episode has varied from several hours to several days. Episodes have been separated by pauses lasting from less than 24 hours to 12 days, according to the observatory.
