Per the marker I placed on opening day, Penta had not erupted since sometime before (maybe well before?) April 20. Today it was 1222ns. The duration was about 44+ minutes. BUT THEN Penta was 1501ie!!!!! Thus, an interval of not more than 2h 39m. The shortest I've ever heard of was about 6 hours. (Note: these were both full water phase eruptions.)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Grotto was on early, turned off at about 0740. Grotto Fountain then at 1208, Grotto 1210. Grotto off at 1400.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Giant was having hot periods and bathtubs today on hourly intervals. During thenhot periods, Mastiff _never_ managed to actually overflow, although a time or two it did have impressive surges while filling to near overflow. I watched three hot periods; all involved only Feather and SW Vents, and one didn't even have SW Vents.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oblong was at 0950 and 1404.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Daisy back onto the short mode, erupting at 0721, 0948ie, 1209ie, and 1420.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Overnight Grand was 2348E and 0645E (6h 57m), then at 1329 (6h 44m, G2Q), so making up maybe for that weirdly long interval yesterday.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Castle was at 0006E and 1311, both majors.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Lion was splashing in the morning hours and still splashing at 1500.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>KC and Julie finally got Depression at 1222.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Consecutive Plumes were called at 1048, 1142, 1232, and 1325. I'd also seen it at 0707.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Both inbound and outbound, the geyser at Black Sand was splashing 2 to 6 feet.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Bill W. caught Fountain at 1116.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Scott Bryan</DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR><DIV><FONT style="color: black; font: normal 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF;"><HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px">See what's free at <A title="http://www.aol.com?ncid=AOLAOF00020000000503" href="http://www.aol.com?ncid=AOLAOF00020000000503" target="_blank">AOL.com</A>. </FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
