<ynpvisitor26> New workout routine. Get up and down every time the cam is.
06:18:22
<ynpvisitor9> OF yet?
06:25:45
<ynpvisitor32> If you put static cams on Main you dont see the up/down messages and can be static too
06:37:21

<ynpvisitor84> Nope, they tried another camera, same failures, on to a different radio some day
06:43:41
<CraigC> did you learn anything from seeing the antenna
06:45:29
<ynpvisitor84> Yes, they said they moved it further away from the VHF antenna, well they did, about 1 foot :)

<CraigC> :thumbsup:
06:53:57
<ynpvisitor84> SteveO is at Grand
06:54:41
<Kevin L™🌵> I love those people who post Turban times.
06:55:01
<CraigC> YW
06:55:04
<CraigC> :)
06:55:05
<ynpvisitor84> Yes very helpful!!
06:55:44
<ynpvisitor84> see Craig you are loved!! :)
06:55:46
<CraigC> some of the gazers that are there, write notes and don't enter in GT until later, so many times I entered them for your guys' sake
06:56:28
<CraigC> dang, tried to zoom back and it crashed
06:57:03
<ynpvisitor84> have to leave have fun!
06:57:10
<CraigC> cya Joe
06:57:18
<Kevin L™🌵> It did that to me all day yesterday.
06:57:33
<CraigC> frustrating
06:58:41
<CraigC> wonder what it will take for them to do to get it fully resolved
06:59:08
<CraigC> grand 656 entered
06:59:33
<Kevin L™🌵> Hopefully the new radio will do it.
07:00:05
<CraigC> I've decided I am not entering WC eruptions unless no one in basin has entered them after some time passed
07:14:42
<Dave from B™> Morning everyone
07:15:03
<CraigC> hey Dave, how's it going
07:15:18
<Kevin L™🌵> Dave finally woke up
07:15:52
<Dave from B™> Late nights are catching up to me
07:16:20
<Kevin L™🌵> I can relate to that!
07:16:58
<CraigC> me too
07:18:16
<CraigC> what's it called where there is a rainbow ring around the sun
07:18:18
<Dave from B™> Craig, are you home now?
07:18:27
<CraigC> got home yesterday
07:19:30
<CraigC> sun halo, google is faster than you guys
07:19:48
<Dave from B™> Congrats on a geyser filled trip. Was SB everything you thought it would be?
07:19:55
<Dave from B™> haha Craig
07:20:48
<CraigC> Dave from B™, it was incredible, especially the huge minors on the morning one, building up and the anticipation, hope and excitement as they kept growing and growing
07:24:36
<Dave from B™> I hear ya Craig. That is my favorite part of gazing...the anticipation
07:26:06
<Dave from B™> Did you bike to Lone Star?
07:26:16
<CraigC> yeah, that is why I get sucked in for days of minors
07:27:01
<Dave from B™> That 5-10 minute buildup before the eruption is incredible. It's like flipping a light switch
07:27:06
<CraigC> yeah, I went out there 2 days in a row on my bike. William rode out with me the 2nd day after I told him about it. and we had a good sense for possible time based on my entry the day before
07:28:17
<CraigC> if I stayed up there longer I would probably try to ride out lots of days and get data entered from the log book
07:32:03
<Dave from B™> It's been awhile since I've been to Lone Star
07:32:08
<CraigC> stevo for the daisy, cool
07:32:13
<CraigC> got
07:32:35
<CraigC> Dave from B™, it's fun on a bike, great scenery, and moving fast enough to avoid bugs
07:32:58
<CraigC> I got chomped on by horse flies and deer flies once there
07:33:20
<Dave from B™> Yep...that's what I remember. Bugs don't usually bother me but that stretch was awful
07:43:11
<Dave from B™> My wife and I are actually looking at small motorhomes and campervans to try to see what we want to buy
07:43:32
<CraigC> fun way to go
07:43:52
<CraigC> I figure I have saved about 5k now on lodging
07:44:02
<Dave from B™> We want something we can easily park, tour in NP's and cities; mostly in the West...and a place for our dogs
07:44:02
<Kevin L™🌵> You could convert a truck...
07:44:21
<Dave from B™> Yeah.....I was offered 1800 at the auction for my truck:(
07:44:28
<CraigC> I love having the shower
07:45:03
<Dave from B™> When we travel, we spend very little time in a motel so we don't need anything big
07:45:21
<Dave from B™> Kevin, how are you holding up?
07:46:11
<Kevin L™🌵> Doing fine. Mostly just busy.
07:47:06
<Dave from B™> So, are you selling your dad's place?
07:48:53
<GO MORNING> yesterday had 3 BH reported, nice short intervals
07:49:09
<Kevin L™🌵> That will keep me busy for a while. He never did subdivde the lot. After a lot of fixing it will cost about $250,000 to get it to the point I can sell it.
07:49:26
<GO MORNING> 2h17 and 3h31m
07:49:43
<GO MORNING> OF
07:49:44
<Dave from B™> I thought it would.
07:50:24
<Dave from B™> I don't see BH on 7/31 GT
07:50:29
<Dave from B™> 3 BH*
07:50:39
<GO MORNING> Bulger's Hole
07:50:55
<Dave from B™> Maybe is should BuHo
07:50:55
<GO MORNING> as opposed to Bh
07:50:57
<CraigC> hahaha
07:51:13
<CraigC> "what we have here.... is a failure to communicate"
07:51:21
<Dave from B™> Or B hole
07:51:24
<Dave from B™> :P
07:51:31
<CraigC> yeah, B-hole
07:52:09
<CraigC> "BH" directs to the Beehive Geyser on the map
08:23:17
<Dave from B™> Morning Mike J
08:23:29
<Mike J> Morning Dave
08:23:50
<CraigC> hey Mike
08:24:05
<Mike J> Greetings CraigC
08:30:57
<Katie> good morning
08:31:28
<CraigC> hey Katie
08:31:47
<Mike J> Morning Katie
08:31:56
<CraigC> someone took over cam
08:32:14
<Katie> Yeah, that was me. Do I have the schedule confused?
08:32:30
<CraigC> maybe I do
08:32:43
<CraigC> been gone too long
08:33:06
<Katie> Seeing SB TWICE! Well, hearing it twice, at least. ;)
08:33:27
<CraigC> 2nd one had great viewing
08:33:49
<CraigC> 1st one we got some moonlight after a while into the eruption and it was really cool
08:33:50
<Katie> I'm looking forward to my turn for a good sunny day SB
08:34:34
<CraigC> here is a shot of the 2nd one; https://imgur.com/undefined
08:34:52
<CraigC> hmmm, https://imgur.com/3AHr1It
08:35:14
<Dave from B™> Craig, what did you think of SB's velocity?
08:35:15
<Katie> Saw that one on FB. Love it!
08:35:36
<CraigC> Dave from B™, faster than an African Swallow
08:39:46
<CraigC> ok, I am outta here, lots of stuff to do so I can go back to YNP
08:40:00
<Katie> Oh, you brat. :0
08:41:33
<Dave from B™> really? You're a maniac:D
08:41:44
<Dave from B™> Don't you have somewhere else to go?:)
08:45:32
<ynpvisitor107> You saw SB, what you gong to do next? "I am going to Disney Land"
08:46:07
<ynpvisitor107> I bet the mouse cam works!
08:48:31
<Dave from B™> haha 107
08:56:13
<ynpvisitor21> what does castle look like?
08:56:52
<ynpvisitor21> thanks
09:08:52
<That's So Radiu> oops
09:18:55
<Sam> I put an A entry for OF at 7:37 because of the NPS prediction but I see Joe put 7:47.
09:22:42
<Sam> Of ie on static
09:26:36
<Katie> Are you going to enter it, Sam?
09:27:28
<Dave from B™> I'm assuming Joe actually saw OF?
09:31:59
<Cooper> Good Morning Everyone
09:32:10
<Katie> good morning, cooper
09:32:23
<Cooper> Hey Katie
09:49:20
<Cooper> Castle
10:32:41
<Jake> at least the image behind the X is crystal clear
10:33:26
<Dave from B™> What x?
10:33:31
<Dave from B™> Mine is working
10:33:56
<Dave from B™> sort of streaming anyway
10:34:18
<Dave from B™> Way to go...now it is saying troubled
10:34:48
<Kevin L™🌵> It does that
10:37:28
<Jake> "the webcam has always been streaming" what are you talking about?
10:42:48
<GO MORNING> its the steaming cam you know
10:44:18
<Kevin L™🌵> It does seem to be taking the day off.
10:58:25
<GO MORNING> i guess the cam is like most operators, doesnt work now
10:59:26
<Kevin L™🌵> I haven't been able to get controls yet.
11:02:32
<Cooper> OF ie on static
11:10:33
<ynpvisitor34> So they changed cameras and reinstalled presets and cam still does not work?
11:11:05
<ynpvisitor34> I wonder why they thought the cam was the issue rather than the feed?
11:13:33
<Katie> The didn't, really, but checking connections and cleaning, etc. is always good maintenance. New radios are coming to replace the connection link.
11:13:41
<ynpvisitor54> they tried another camera yesterday, same problem, they are going to try a different radio
11:14:26
<Casey> Thanks for the update. Glad there are plans to help improve the experience.
11:17:42
<ynpvisitor34> Can anything help at this location?
11:18:49
<Katie> Maybe... I work at a wireless ISP. We've had locations where one type of radio, which tested perfectly in another location, simply didn't work.
11:19:08
<Katie> So, trying a different type of radio is a worthwhile attempt.
11:19:12
<ynpvisitor34> Funny how people waiting on BH do not post OF
11:19:36
<ynpvisitor34> Glad to hear that Katie
11:54:47
<Cooper> Daisy
12:06:15
<LindaG> Hi all
12:07:23
<LindaG> No one watching ?
12:07:54
<LindaG> Well I guess there's nothing g to watch
12:08:33
<Cooper> Oh, Hey Linda!
12:08:45
<LindaG> Cooper, hi
12:09:14
<LindaG> Hows the cam behaving?
12:09:49
<LindaG> Well that answers the question
12:10:04
<Cooper> It is not very good
12:10:17
<LindaG> 🙁
12:12:59
<ynpvisitor4> is the stuck photo from Daisy that Cooper just chatted about, or is that an earlier capture?
12:14:12
<Cooper> that was 20 minutes ago
12:14:15
<ynpvisitor4> I hope it does not take a month to get a new radio for the cam. Things go slowly in the NPS pipeline.
12:14:41
<ynpvisitor4> I don't see it on GT is all
12:15:30
<Cooper> oh, now you do
12:16:29
<ynpvisitor4> now I do:)
12:16:43
<ynpvisitor4> so cam was working for a minute or two?
12:16:57
<Cooper> more like 5 seconds
12:17:18
<ynpvisitor4> at least you saw an eruption
12:30:27
<Jake> OF IE!
12:30:38
<Jake> IT'S MOVING!
12:33:09
<Kevin L™🌵> Looks like ants on a hill.
12:36:11
<ynpvisitor4> a minute of cam, well done
12:39:14
<ynpvisitor4> 8 minutes of cam
12:45:20
<Casey> I missed it?!?!
12:45:30
<LindaG> Casey, yup
12:45:34
<LindaG> Lol
12:45:48
<Kevin L™🌵> It was exciting.
12:45:53
<LindaG> Ya gotta be quick
12:46:08
<LindaG> Kevin L™🌵, 😊
12:46:10
<Casey> Look!
12:46:34
<LindaG> Casey, I actually missed it too
12:46:36
<Casey> Nm. I saw some movement in steam for probably 2 seconds
12:47:11
<Casey> That's ok. I have plenty to do. I'm less tempted to stare at geysers this way.
12:47:35
<LindaG> It does open up a whole new world
12:47:45
<Kevin L™🌵> I can relate to that.
12:47:48
<Cooper> Grand
12:48:04
<LindaG> Yay!
12:48:24
<Cooper> Wait, a moving geyser
12:48:34
<Cooper> Ooops, I broke it
12:48:39
<Kevin L™🌵> Aw, you broke it!
12:48:54
<ynpvisitor4> Cooper broke Grand?
12:49:09
<Cooper> No, but I did break the cam
12:49:13
<Kevin L™🌵> At least in a good spot
12:49:27
<ynpvisitor4> Grand forever...
12:51:03
<Kevin L™🌵> Nice poof
12:51:06
<ynpvisitor4> fuzzy Grand
12:52:10
<ynpvisitor4> Brian must be leaving Grand post to hk
12:52:41
<ynpvisitor4> spikes!
12:55:33
<LindaG> This time I broke it
12:55:53
<Cooper> Linda, Linda, Linda.
12:56:29
<LindaG> 🤣
12:56:42
<Cooper> 2nd
12:57:02
<LindaG> Good spike
13:00:35
<LindaG> All done
13:05:03
<Cooper> D0/G2Q
13:05:59
<Casey> Churn. I'm glad something is happening out there, but I sure miss Sawmill.
13:06:05
<ynpvisitor999®> afternoon all
13:06:08
<Cooper> Hey Jarno
13:06:11
<Casey> Hi Jarno
13:06:16
<ynpvisitor999®> how's the downtime doing?
13:06:25
<LindaG> ynpvisitor999®, hi
13:06:26
<Casey> It was horrendous
13:07:12
<Casey> I've been distracted, but today has been one of the worst I've seen.
13:07:31
<Kevin L™🌵> Same here
13:07:50
<Cooper> Casey, what do you mean it "was" horrendous, it is horrendous
13:08:10
<Casey> It happened to be playing right when he asked that. Wishful thinking I guess
13:08:28
<LindaG> Oh I'm so looking forward to to tomorrow.
13:09:24
<ynpvisitor999®> are they going to do something about it tomorrow or am I interpreting this wrongly?
13:09:54
<LindaG> No. I'm not looking forward to my shift.
13:10:15
<ynpvisitor999®> oh :(
13:10:19
<Cooper> Hey Lori!!
13:10:22
<LindaG> Helloe,lori hello
13:10:26
<Lori S> Hi Cooper
13:10:32
<Lori S> Hello Linda Hello
13:10:48
<ynpvisitor999®> afternoon Lori
13:10:55
<Lori S> Howdy Jarno
13:11:09
<Kevin L™🌵> Hello John Boy
13:11:20
<Lori S> Hi Mary Ellen
13:12:22
<LindaG> Then it mysteriously howls for a while
13:12:38
<LindaG> Lol *heals
13:12:39
<ynpvisitor999®> AB
13:14:00
<Lori S> LindaG, That was me joining :p
13:14:46
<LindaG> 😊
13:21:58
<LindaG> 23 hrs for beehive
13:22:23
<LindaG> Oh I want one
13:22:35
<Kevin L™🌵> I want a Steve cookie
13:22:47
<Cooper> Thanks Lori
13:22:50
<Lori S> A watermelon one LindaG? You can have a few. :)
13:23:06
<Cooper> I'll take a Grape one
13:23:44
<LindaG> Yum, watermelon
13:24:18
<Dave from B™> I will take all the cherry and cinnamon fire
13:24:31
<LindaG> Kevin L™🌵, what is a Steve cookie?
13:24:41
<Lori S> Dave from B™, There are cinnamon fire Jolly Ranchers?
13:25:06
<Dave from B™> Yep. I jhave a whole bag at home
13:25:14
<Kevin L™🌵> Steve makes cookies and gives them out on the bw to gazers
13:25:31
<LindaG> Ah!
13:25:32
<ynpvisitor999®> by the way, based on one or two series of South intervals, it seems its intervals are getting shorter as Beehive approachers. Hopefully this can be used to predict where Bee is in its interval
13:25:45
<ynpvisitor999®> approaches*
13:25:56
<ynpvisitor27> the habanero cookie is my fave :D
13:26:28
<LindaG> Hmmm habanero and cheddar would be good
13:27:15
<LindaG> All this talk of food and I'm eating butternut squash pretzels
13:27:20
<Dave from B™> I'm not sure you know but Steve Eide retired yesterday
13:28:10
<Lori S> LindaG, Wait, what? What is that?
13:28:30
<Lori S> Dave from B™, What did he do?
13:28:40
<Lori S> I haven't really met him ever,
13:28:51
<LindaG> Lori S, they are made if cassava flour and butternut squash
13:29:00
<Kevin L™🌵> These would be good too: https://www.parthenonfoods.com/products/haribo-primavera-erdbeeren-strawberries-500-st-tub?variant=1207480841
13:29:16
<LindaG> Oh and cauliflower
13:29:19
<Lori S> LindaG, Are they good are do they taste "healthy"?
13:29:51
<ynpvisitor999®> what even is English nowadays? :)
13:30:14
<LindaG> They are not bad, I've tasted worse. Gluten free and vegan. Company called 'from the ground up'
13:31:28
<LindaG> They make cauliflower tortilla chips too, those are better
13:33:07
<LindaG> That didnt last long
13:34:51
<Lori S> LindaG, I tried some vessie stick things in a chip like bag. Blech.
13:34:54
<Dave from B™> Linda, I'm not sure what Steve Eide's career was.
13:34:58
<Lori S> *veggie
13:36:09
<Lori S> Dave from B™, Thanks Dave. I saw him a few times at SB but never met him. In fact, It may have been you that first showed me who he was.
13:36:43
<Dave from B™> He is a kind kind man.
13:40:05
<Lori S> Dave from B™, I hope to meet him then. Happy retirement to him. More time for gazing.
13:41:58
<Dave from B™> He does volunteer work for NPS and his daughter is a ranger, I believe
13:44:31
<ynpvisitor999®> could that plume on static frame be GHG-16?
13:44:45
<ynpvisitor999®> static frame of streaming, that is
13:46:50
<Lori S> ynpvisitor999®, Is that steam on Aurum side or other side of walk? I mean what we are now looking at
13:47:28
<Kevin L™🌵> Probably so
13:47:28
<ynpvisitor999®> Doublet side
13:47:54
<ynpvisitor999®> not really any steam from Aurum until a few seconds ago
13:48:24
<ynpvisitor999®> GHG-16 is behind Doublet from this view I think
13:49:32
<LindaG> Lot of people around bee but it seems quiet
13:50:40
<Kevin L™🌵> Grand runoff
13:51:12
<LindaG> Just moved to the next geyser eh?
13:51:14
<ynpvisitor108> OF and Daisy window :)
13:57:09
<Cooper> bye Lori
13:57:12
<Lori S> You never know when an elepahnt will show up that wants cookies.
13:57:20

<Lori S> Bye all. May BBL
13:57:44
<Dave from B™> My wife found a live frog in our basement this morning
13:57:51
<Dave from B™> Bye Lori
13:57:57
<Cooper> Huh
13:57:59
<Kevin L™🌵> Bye
13:58:10
<Kevin L™🌵> Guess that beats a dead rat Dave
13:58:14
<Dave from B™> So, instead of a doggy door......
13:58:18
<Dave from B™> we have a froggy door
13:58:27
<Lori S> Dave from B™, LOL
14:01:36
<ynpvisitor999®> hm, based on South intervals it seems Bee is still some time away, hopefully no longer than an hour though
14:02:02
<Cooper> Hopefully the cam is nice to us.
14:02:56
<Dave from B™> We are wondering if maybe he hitchhiked from our camping spot
14:03:34
<Kevin L™🌵> Sounds like a fun camping spot
14:05:00
<LindaG> Frogs happen
14:05:34
<Kevin L™🌵> Not a lot where I live
14:05:47
<LindaG> Hehe I guess not
14:06:17
<LindaG> Any toads?
14:06:32
<Kevin L™🌵> Horny toads
14:07:01
<LindaG> They're neat
14:07:01
<Dave from B™> There is ALWAYS something interesting to talk about in our household; it seems
14:07:46
<Kevin L™🌵> We do get some surprising critters here. I found a pheasant in my yard once.
14:08:07
<LindaG> That's weird
14:08:46
<LindaG> They beeed them for hunting here, so if there is one, it's usually not wild
14:09:00
<Kevin L™🌵> There have been a lot of roadrunners and quail.
14:09:18
<LindaG> Nice. Roadrunners are neat too
14:09:42
<LindaG> Saw one in sedona
14:10:40
<Kevin L™🌵> I had to stop for some quail in the road Monday. There were about 10 adults and as may tiny ones.
14:12:47
<ynpvisitor999®> OF ie mid
14:12:59
<Kevin L™🌵> 1411 on OF
14:15:17
<LindaG> Pretty much killed all the quail in Jersey, now trying to get them back. Humans are so destructive
14:17:38
<Kevin L™🌵> They are all over the place here. You will see cars stopping for no apparent reason and when you get there you will find quail.
14:18:03
<Kevin L™🌵> I keep natural food and cover for them in my yard.
14:20:22
<LindaG> Kevin L™🌵, that is nice of you
14:20:58
<LindaG> Habitat loss is the main cause out here
14:21:09
<Kevin L™🌵> I guess this is one way to get rid of grasshoppers: https://nypost.com/2019/07/31/las-vegas-pizzeria-serves-grasshopper-pizza-amid-insect-invasion/
14:22:01
<Dave from B™> yikes. Do you have lots of grasshoppers Kevin?
14:22:16
<Kevin L™🌵> Kind of fun here with the quail. They mix very well with the people.
14:22:42
<Kevin L™🌵> They haven't been bad at my place but we have had more than normal for sure.
14:23:20
<LindaG> Garlic roasted! Lol
14:23:38
<Dave from B™> My oldest dog has had a steady diet of grasshoppers for a couple of weeks
14:25:36
<Kevin L™🌵> My dog loved cicadia. She would whine at the back door in the morning. I would open the door and it was buzz crunch for about 10m. Saved me about 50% on dog food.
14:25:45
<ynpvisitor999®> I think it's a good idea to pan to Beehive. Likely very close with now a 13m interval
14:25:50
<ynpvisitor999®> on South, that
14:25:51
<ynpvisitor999®> is
14:25:53
<ynpvisitor999®> can't type
14:26:11
<Kevin L™🌵> If the cam was running I would be there.
14:26:57
<LindaG> Do you know what kind of quail? Gambels?
14:28:33
<Kevin L™🌵> Yes Linda
14:28:44
<LindaG> Gambles?
14:28:54
<LindaG> I didnt type that
14:28:59
<Kevin L™🌵> I love the little ones.
14:29:04
<LindaG> I said nice
14:29:25
<LindaG> They must be cute
14:30:08
<Kevin L™🌵> They are. One thing I like is if they grow up around me they are not as timid as the ones that wander in.

14:35:35
<Cooper> well, I hate to leave in the middle of an eruption, but I will be back in 15 or no
14:35:39
<Cooper> 20** not no
14:36:09
<ynpvisitor999®> cya Cooper

<Dave from B™> Kevin, it's a good day today....paying $325 a month less in health insurance since my daughter got married:)

<Cooper> Just in time
14:53:51
<Cooper> WOHO
14:53:55
<Dave from B™> woohoo
14:53:57
<Cooper> Was there an indy?
14:54:05
<Betty> no
14:54:07
<ynpvisitor999®> nope
14:54:17
<LindaG> Shower time
14:54:25
<Cooper> and the cam is doing okay I see
14:54:26
<ynpvisitor118> Gonna be strange if South Bubblers become the new indicator
14:54:28
<ynpvisitor999®> unless you consider decreasing intervals of South as indicator :)
14:54:38
<Cooper> Nope, but yes
14:55:10
<ynpvisitor8> Thx for the txt
14:55:14
<ynpvisitor999®> Indy
14:55:20
<LindaG> Ice bee
14:55:45
<ynpvisitor999®> pretty eruption
14:55:53
<Dave from B™> Ice cold bee*
14:55:58
<Kevin L™🌵> Late Indy
14:56:07
<ynpvisitor999®> beautiful steam curtain
14:56:11
<LindaG> Oh look at that
14:56:24
<ynpvisitor999®> Indy already done
14:57:01
<LindaG> Beautiful
14:57:34
<Cooper> NOOOOOOO
14:57:47
<Cooper> Well, I guess it stayed up for 4 minutes
14:57:53
<ynpvisitor999®> dangit static-but-actually-sometimes-streaming cam
14:58:44
<LindaG> It was a good run
14:59:10
<ynpvisitor999®> at least we caught Bee starting and much of the eruption
14:59:27
<ynpvisitor999®> maybe Aurum soon
14:59:29
<Kevin L™🌵> Best we can expect right now
14:59:37
<ynpvisitor999®> about time for it, too
15:05:56
<ynpvisitor999®> I do enjoy exchanges of function from time to time. If only such a thing would wake up the Orion Group...
15:06:44
<LindaG> Nice frozen screen of bee
15:06:59
<Cooper> I would much rather Giant wake up
15:09:21
<Betty> it´s been a busy day. Headed for sleep. night all
15:09:31
<Cooper> Bye Betty
15:09:34
<Kevin L™🌵> Night
15:09:36
<ynpvisitor999®> night Betty
15:11:37
<Dave from B™> Nite, Betty
15:11:56
<Dave from B™> I'm also outta here. Time to go sweat. Have a great evening everyone!
15:12:17
<Cooper> Bye Dave
15:12:39
<Kevin L™🌵> Hey Dave, tonight is the NASCAR dirt track race on FS1
15:30:39
<ynpvisitor999®> I do have to say Cistern doesn't really have a nice crater if you'd ask me according to this USGS image: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EA6gh2oX4Aoihmo.jpg
15:33:01
<Cooper> I agree, when it is empty it does not look very nice. but when it is is full, it is the other way around
15:47:21
<ynpvisitor999®> OF ie mid
15:48:38
<Kevin L™🌵> Looks like near end
15:52:00
<Cooper> Lion ie
15:53:08
<ynpvisitor999®> I'm eager to see Norris reports today. Didn't look too good for Steamboat yesterday based on Norris notes
15:53:52
<Cooper> No it did not, 1.25 Days of Eruption is a lot more than usual, although that was likely caused by the D
15:54:10
<ynpvisitor999®> I wouldn't go that far just yet
15:54:39
<Cooper> I think most people agree that with all of that weird stuff, and the muddiness in all of the springs there is a D
15:54:50
<Kevin L™🌵> I think Craig put exlax in it.
15:55:08
<Cooper> Although, I hope not, as it could spell the end of SB this time around
15:55:13
<Cooper> HAHA Kevin
15:55:37
<ynpvisitor999®> at least we now have someone to blame for a possible disturbance :)
15:58:27
<Cooper> off for a game of badminton, be back in 30
15:58:59
<ynpvisitor999®> cya, have fun
16:00:32
<Kevin L™🌵> controls relwased
16:01:48
<ynpvisitor999®> afternoon Kat
16:02:08
<Kat> We are having terrible storms here in Florida. Resetting my internet. Be right with you allo
16:02:23
<Kat> All*
16:06:16
<ynpvisitor999®> OT 1601 ns. Hopefully another chance on Churn soon
16:09:17
<LindaG> Uh oh
16:12:54
<Kat1> Evening - we'll see how long this lasts! Florida tropical weather is the worst!
16:13:52
<LindaG> Kat1, hi
16:14:22
<ynpvisitor999®> Daisy ie
16:14:29
<Kat1> Hey Linda!
16:25:18
<Kat1> This is not goung well!
16:25:23
<Kat1> going*
16:34:21
<Kevin L™🌵> It was a fun day
16:35:15
<Kat1> Not now!
16:36:50
<Kat1> Cam comes up for only seconds! Hardly enough time to move it.
16:37:17
<Kevin L™🌵> I think I was fishing for the cam the first hour of my shift.
16:38:13
<Kat1> I'm having torrential rains and thunderstorms - not helping my internet!
16:38:53
<ynpvisitor999®> I hope this really was the last blow of this duct-tape setup. It ought to be time
16:39:31
<Kevin L™🌵> There were some good ones west of me yesterday but I just got showers.
16:40:01
<Cooper> I would literally get on my knees and beg the NPS to fix it completely, or to move it back
16:40:42
<Kat1> I'm not going to stick with this tonight! My internet is down again! I may be back! Kevin, Joe, Linda - if you want to take the cam I'll check back in later after the storms!
16:40:47
<ynpvisitor999®> I don't really want it to be moved back - the views are way to good for that
16:41:18
<Cooper> Me neither, but I would sacrifice the veiws for a functional cam
16:41:20
<ynpvisitor999®> I think fixing this setup properly will take away many of our frustrations of this cam
16:42:56
<Kevin L™🌵> There is a new approved that they are hoping will fix the issue.
16:43:31
<Cooper> wait, so they are actually going to try to fix it?
16:43:51
<ynpvisitor999®> a new what approved, Kevin?
16:43:59
<ynpvisitor999®> permit perhaps?
16:44:19
<Kevin L™🌵> radio
16:44:27
<Cooper> about time
16:44:40
<ynpvisitor999®> thanks. I indeed hope that'll do the trick
16:45:23
<Kevin L™🌵> Supposed to be a much better unit than existing.
16:45:54
<Cooper> any idea when, and how long the cam will be down for them to do it?
16:47:21
<Cooper> Norris notes on GT, still reads like a D
16:48:21
<ynpvisitor999®> Norris notes and eruptions are in. It seems Whirligig had no minors during the observed period (not alarming per se), 21m49s Vixen eruption. Steamboat gently steaming, Cistern (still) empty. Emerald miky turquoise blue with tennisball-sized bubbles breaking surface here and there
16:48:54
<Cooper> so Jarno, do you agree with a D
16:49:05
<ynpvisitor999®> Cistern is steaming though if I interpret it right, so hopefully water back in the pool by tomorrow or so
16:49:50
<Cooper> Jarno, I think No Sounds, Steam. means there are no sounds and no steam
16:50:08
<ynpvisitor999®> Pinwheel area and above seems to have increased its water output
16:50:51
<ynpvisitor999®> either way Cistern is still empty
16:53:49
<ynpvisitor999®> I'm not quite convinced there's a disturbance starting at the moment, but it's interesting to read that Emerald Spring has changed its color (maybe heating up or something, not muddy though)
16:54:43
<Cooper> but Tantalus is brown-black, and yesterday Congress was brown and roiling
16:55:18
<Kevin L™🌵> The pool or real Congress?
16:55:33
<Cooper> the pool
16:59:08
<ynpvisitor999®> I recall both can happen unrelated to a disturbance. For example, Tantalus did such a thing multiple times over the past weeks without the rest of the basin 'responding'
16:59:42
<Cooper> okay, maybe I am mistaken. But really who knows at this point
17:00:50
<ynpvisitor999®> the more experienced observers are likely the best to ask for signs of disturbances
17:00:56
<ynpvisitor27> and when Tantalus was active Root Pool would drop, weeks ago
17:23:26
<Cooper> OF ie
17:37:10
<ynpvisitor97> Strange, I just got a tantalus spike alert
17:37:30
<Cooper> wait, is there an alert system
17:37:31
<ynpvisitor97> Is that smoke or rain clouds at washburn?
17:38:04
<ynpvisitor97> ohh, nevermind, it looks like a rain storm must of come through, washburn road at the top is soaked
17:38:24
<Cooper> how do you get an alert?
17:38:27
<ynpvisitor97> Only an alert if you build it yourself :-D
17:38:34
<Cooper> oh
17:38:37
<Cooper> okay
17:39:07
<ynpvisitor97> Nice steam on washburn thermal area
17:39:28
<ynpvisitor97> Don't usually see that on a warm day in the middle of the afternoon
17:39:29
<ynpvisitor999®> I'm off. Enjoy watching Ye Ol'e Fluffball during the rare moments the cam is taking multiple pictures per second
17:39:43
<Cooper> bye Jarno
17:53:18
<ynpvisitor109> Kevin used all the water in Cistern to water his astro turf.
17:53:36
<Cooper> Rainbow on mt Washburn
18:11:58
<ynpvisitor109> It Moved!!!!
18:17:10
<Cooper> New Norris notes
18:17:44
<ynpvisitor109> Anhything exciting?
18:18:01
<Cooper> About the same
18:18:25
<ynpvisitor109> It is all Dave and Kevin's fault.
18:18:41
<Cooper> Cistern completely empty, with no water, steam, or sound. SB is quiest but has a little bit of runoff
18:18:52
<ynpvisitor109> Well got to go, enjoy the X
18:19:00
<Cooper> bye

<Cooper> Yes I am still around
19:59:33
