All times, unless otherwise noted, are from Saturday, August 8.

I would have gotten this report in sooner, but there was a pretty
heavy rainstorm moving through for most of the evening. That kept me
from going to the Visitor Center to get the times. There was snow on
the eastern side of the Park, as some of my coworkers drove through
it, but thankfully none here.

I did not go out to try and get the overnight Beehive. I decided that
sleep was more important. Pat Snyder did inform me though that Beehive
was 0224 on the webcam with the Indicator i.e. at 0219. Thanks Pat!
Beehive then erupted at 1528 in the afternoon.

Castle erupted at 0646 major

A visitor called the Visitor Center from Mammoth and told them that
Opal Pool was having an eruption. I have not heard whether or not this
was confirmed by anyone.
