[Geysers] 22 and 23 July (Schwarz)

[MaryBeth Schwarz]

     Beehive skipped 22 July.  There was a typo on the Grand times in my 
last e-mail.  Grand on 22 July was at 0222Elec, 0914 (T1Q) NOT 1914, and 
1744 (T1Q).  Grotto went into a marathon at 1327.

     On 23 July Castle was at 0003Elec (minor) and 0613ns major.  Grand was 
0342 Elec (an interval of about 9h58m) and 1102 (T1C).  The Grotto marathon 
had ended before 0540 when Jim checked it.  Th recovery hot period was at 
0831 (d~9m) with Mastiff only up to 3'-4' and at 8m there was some nice 
surging in Giant.  Other hot periods were at 1157 (d~4m) and 1336 (d~3m48s). 
  Oblong was at 1001 (d=8m from Kitt Barger).  Water was called in Beehive's 
Indicator at 1157 (dropped at 1208 and again water at 1216).  Please do not 
ask whether there is still water in the Indicator -- the people watching it 
will say if it drops or whatever).  Beehive's Indicator started at 1217 and 
Beehive erupted at 1225.  At about 1225 and 30 seconds the Close to Cone 
Indicator started.

     It is very hot here, but clouds built up just before Beehive and there 
is a breeze so it is cooler.  We need rain.  There has been some haze from 
smoke blowing in to the basin.
