Today it was at 1240, so this interval of 17h 52m.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But what I really wanted to report. With my tour group at Fountain Paint Pots, we actually saw (I think -- I reported it as near start) Fountain Geyser start erupting at 1014. Not until I was on-site did I realize that it did so withOUT ANY activity by Spasm. No. Spasm was not only quiet, but 10 minutes into Fountain it acted as a drain for Fountain's runoff with no standing water visible. And the runoff from Spasm to Jelly and beyond was dry, too, and Jelly was down 4 or 5 inches. There had also been no Twig and no Sizzler/SFP. But Jet was active frequently. And Clepsydra seemed "normal." So another weird Fountain event. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Note -- some gazers were leaving Fountain as we arrived, advising me that it was "nowhere close" to erupting.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I wondered -- might this possibly have produced a wild phase? I do not know -- I had a tour and could not stay beyond that 10 minute mark.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Scott Bryan</DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
