[Geysers] Giant & Streaming Video

[Bruce Jensen]

Not having seen the video in question it is hard to be sure, but I suspect
that it would be nearly impossible to differentiate between Rocket Major
and Grotto except possibly as to duration of play.  They are simply too
close together!

I only made a couple of notes to myself as I watched that day:

   Grotto? 1535 wc  (and I didn't write it down, but I believe that there
was some steam to the right of it beforehand.  It seemed a little far
right to be Grotto Fountain, but could have been).  

   ~1650 Giant Hot Period?  or just wind shift?  Rocket?  In other words,
there was something different at that time - an increase in steam and it
appeared to be coming from a different spot.  The temperatures were very
cold that day, which I am sure increased the amount of steam from what we
usually see.  (And, of course, Fan & Mortar could have been doing
something during this time period, too, as others have mentioned.)

A question about last Friday, November 30.  Did anyone else see the steam
cloud down basin that afternoon (1620 ie)?

also worth noting that the electronic log for Grotto has it starting at
1535e, which lines up with the time that the steam cloud appeared on the
webcam.  I wasn't watching that day so I cannot provide further comment.

Sorry to chime in late,  but I have been analyzing the November 23
download data and noted a very short interval (2h19m) of Oblong Geyser at
23:07 on 21 November, and most of the short intervals have occurred
following a Giant eruption.  Certainly not convincing in itself, but in
conjunction with the steam cloud, interesting.

   Yeah, I was wondering why nobody mentioned that.  I had the streaming
cam open at work all day Wednesday, and it looked like Giant started
between 15:30 and 15:45 MST.  I didn't think to get any screenshots, but
whoever was operating the streaming webcam focused on it for a while, so
it was at least noticed locally.  Along with the eruption this morning,
that would make two intervals in the three to three-and-a-half day range.

Happy Friday:
 
Two things...Did I see a Giant eruption around 1700 on Wednesday?  Maybe I
missed an earlier report.  Also, could someone pass on to the video cam
operator a big thanks for panning the whole basin?  It would be nice if
they could pan the camera back during an eruption of Old Faithful so that
we could enjoy the whole column instead of just the bottom 1/2.  Also,
when no one is there to operate it, could it be directed a few degrees to
the west so we can see Grand and the other down basin features?  Not
complaining, just trying to further enhance our enjoyment.
