It may be a little premature to welcome Echinus back into the fold, but it 
just had its third eruption of the summer, closing an interval of slightly
over seven days.

The last two eruptions were both during daylight hours.  I hope some 
visitors were on hand to be surprised and delighted, even if perhaps they 
were unaware of how rare the sight has been in recent years.

The Yellowstone Volcanic Observatory maintains a temperature monitor on 
Echinus.  You can see the current daily, weekly, and monthly logs here:
