[Geysers] geyser report for Sat 5-21-11

[Barbara Lasseter]

Apparently I saw pretty much all the snow that was to be had
yesterday--it left about the same time I did, leaving no trace.   Snow
banks are fast disappearing.  It is amazing how rapidly the brown
muddy meadows change to green velvet.

Beehive: 0818  w/18minute indicator
Plume: 0615, 0711, 0815, 0920, 1023--the 4 that I observed were 5 bursts each
Lion: 0748 initial, 0901, 1013ie
Depression: 0808
Castle quiet after an overnight major
Daisy: 0709
Rift: overnight sometime
Churn: 1036ie

I heard calls about Morning's thief at 0851 and 0905, followed by
Fountain 0938ie--off at 0950.  Fountain had a 1630 eruption yesterday.

Great fountain was reported at 0911ie
White Dome 1051ie

Artemisia yesterday at 1919ns with Atomizer minors at 1836 and 1946.

Spouter was ie at 0624 as I drove by.

Warmer today, but with no sun and a good breeze--still felt cold on
prolonged exposure.

I will be out of the basin tomorrow, next Thursday and sporadically
the rest of next week.
