Really must do things here, and the weather forecast is horrible.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>First a couple of items from yesterday. Grand was 1554 (T3Q). And the Grotto marathon ended at about 1745.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Today early we found that the marathon recovery had already taken place; so far as we know, nobody saw it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Giant hot periods at 0828 (d=3m14s; Feather and Satellite + SW Vents), 0938 (d=3m19s; Feather and SW only but followed by a long spell of intriguingly powerful jetting in Giant and protracted bubbling in Feather and Slit), and 1047 (d=2m30s; Feather and SW, weak). Thereafter were rather poor bathtubs at 1204 and about 1316. By that time, Grotto had been in eruption for almost 4 hours and we all gave up. And Grotto was still on at 1350.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>[[[ And so now as I was about to send this (without this paragraph), we find that Giant erupted about 1 hour after I left the basin. I'm guessing the person who called the start was Tom Carberry. This actually doesn't surprise me a whole lot. At least now we have a handle on the thing. But why is there no-zero steam cloud on the Webcam at 1600? Windy, yes, but...]]]</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Plume intervals of 47 and 44 minutes, followed by 91 for two.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Steve Eide caught Beehive's Indicator at 0637ie and Beehive at 0641. That's a closed interval of 16h 23m. By the way, yesterday's Beehive was indeed a No-Indicator eruption (unless the Indicator started only seconds before Beehive).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Nope, no Depression reported today. No Aurum either.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>A concluding Lion minor took place at 0719.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Castle at 0758, major.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Uncertain 0805.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Grand was 0652ie. Through much of the day, West Triplet was either overflowing lightly or just before overflow until it sort of erupted its yellow-brown water at about 1335.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oblong was at 0931. It was, I think, the most powerful Oblong I've ever seen, repeatedly jetting fr above the background ridgeline, and it had a duration of (yes) a touch longer than 9 (nine) minutes.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Daisy, in spite of strong southerly wind, 0924, 1130, and 1330.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Riverside 1201. The start of overflow was seen, lasted 92 minutes to the eruption.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>F&M looked pretty cruddy.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Others saw Artemisia at 0727ie.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I saw Fountain at 0719ie.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>As I was getting ready to depart, I saw a substantial steam cloud rising from the area of Dilapidated, at 1358.</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">Need a new ride?
