[Geysers] Earthquake swarm effects at Daisy?

Does anyone have recent (this week) data or observations from the Daisy
group?  It's one area that historically is quite sensitive to earthquake
swarms, and the swarm this week is somewhat reminiscent of the swarm in 1978
that kicked Daisy into regularity and made Splendid active.

Just wondering.  And hoping, of course.   Obviously, you look for shorter
intervals on Daisy - then again, it might not be obvious, but Splendid
activity is associated with shorter Daisy intervals - in the 90s they were
in the 83-88 minute range, in the 70s intervals of Daisy were in the 78-80
minute range.  Also look for more discharge and more activity in the main
vent of Splendid (not to be confused with the "side boiler," which is
another vent within the larger pool of splendid.

If anyone has data or obs I'd appreciate reading them!
