I think it's been continuously erupting not just smoke and burps but lava through a vent that outlets directly to the ocean.
A few years ago another vent opened up and may have threatened some structures. And of course yesterday a new vent opened right by a subdivision and it was preceded by some pretty major changes. The crater floor collapsed and there have been a magma build in the main chamber.
