07:04:04
<Betty> hi Michelle
07:11:08
<Betty> morning linda
07:12:41
<linda> Betty, hi
07:13:55
<Michelle> Hi Linda
07:14:07
<linda> Michelle, hi
07:16:04
<Mike J> Good Friday morning everyone.
07:16:12
<Mike J> Or would that be good Good Friday morning?
07:16:47
<Betty> good morning Mike J
07:20:05
<Mike J> I'll only be on a relatively short time today. Gotta drop a friend at the mechanics. But I wanted to see a little snow to offset 90 degree days.
07:20:38
<Betty> pretty warm
07:21:49
<linda> Mike J, hi
07:22:50
<Mike J> That's just slightly above normal in these parts. Just a little "warm"-up for the coming 110s
07:26:06
<Mike J> Seven weeks until my Yellowstone trip.
07:26:09
<Mike J> Not that I'm counting.
07:27:15
<Michelle> OF window
07:27:53
<555> never count, never plan, bad things happen
07:27:59
<linda> Mike J, :thumbsup:
07:28:25
<Mike J> Keep moving. nothing to see here. Nothing to count here.
07:28:38
<555> :thumbsup:
08:01:59
<555> Linda must be watching and OF knows it!!!
08:08:20
<Michelle> If that 6:02 is right, that's over a 2 hour interval for OF
08:09:06
<Michelle> OF
08:09:38
<555> yay
08:09:41
<Betty> I bet it is a short
08:13:11
<555> long
08:13:38
<Betty> :thumbsup:
08:16:25
<555> 2h 7 min interval
08:17:15
<Betty> one of the longest interval I´ve ever seen
08:17:45
<Mike J> Have fun all
08:28:43
<33> Not a very big line at West Gate
08:29:28
<Michelle> Riverside
08:30:43
<Betty> ah, we have NPS predictions again
08:32:57
<Michelle> Looks like twice as many predictions!!:):)
08:40:56
<Betty> :daisy:
08:41:01
<Michelle> :daisy:
08:50:26
<Michelle> Tardy
08:59:01
<enotswolleY sni> Roads are open text
08:59:38
<33> “Snow tires required”…good luck with that
09:01:01
<33> I’d love to see them turn around cars that do not have proper tires. Sadly, no one leaves their entrance kiosks to look
09:01:25
<ynpvisitor260> Road barely looks plowed
09:02:08
<ynpvisitor260> Looks like single plow heading out
09:07:08
<ynpvisitor260> "And they're off"
09:07:35
<ynpvisitor260> Looks like a plow leading the way and maybe some folks passing the plow lol
09:17:07
<Michelle> Grand
09:27:48
<ynpvisitor260> Decent size line of cars
09:30:25
<Kitt> nice steam blob
09:30:58
<ynpvisitor260> Can finally see the end of the line of cars, not bad considering the conditions
09:31:34
<ynpvisitor260> It willbe like a snow coach ride minus the $500 fees
09:32:30
<Kitt> never paid anything like $500 for a snowcoach ride
09:33:24
<Kitt> hopefully road stays open
09:34:00
<Michelle> OF window
09:34:21
<ynpvisitor260> Snow coach is now $144 one way per person
09:34:50
<Kitt> so $288
09:35:09
<ynpvisitor260> I'll be sure to fact check all my jokes going forward
09:35:59
<ynpvisitor260> It will be like a "one person with no lodging" snow coach ride minus the $288 fees
09:37:22
<linda> always thought snowcoach was more
09:38:17
<linda> roads look iffy :)
09:40:45
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Iffy? Nasty is more like it.
09:41:37
<linda> Kevin L™ 🌵, >(
09:42:26
<linda> the shine on the roads on static, can't be good
09:47:22

<KorbenC> sure, what time?
19:35:40
<john> I noted it at 19:15 thanks Korben
19:35:54
<KorbenC> :thumbsup:
19:39:23
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Looks like a nasty tornado night near Memphis Korben.
19:39:51
<KorbenC> yea, its massive
19:42:34
<KorbenC> Going through a residential area too
19:43:43
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I have some friends that live there and another set near Atlanta. Tornadoes are worse than snow, especially at night.
19:44:11
<KorbenC> With hail too
19:44:20
<KorbenC> Swining around at 200mps
19:48:13
<john> :daisy:
19:53:13
<Kevin L™ 🌵> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
19:53:49
<john> yeah looks like :bee: is in for the evening...
19:54:43
<Kevin L™ 🌵> I was thinking we were missing eruptions. I am thinking now we are looking at 1 to 3 day intervals. :(
19:59:06
<john> how do I add a time for daisy?
20:00:42
<DanS working> john, do you have a GT account?
20:01:00
<DanS working> Geyser Times
20:01:28
<john> I don't think so but not sure
20:03:07
<DanS working> Believe you need a GT account and be logged in to enter a time
20:03:33
<john> okay I am checking on acct
20:03:43
<DanS working> https://geysertimes.org/index.php
20:08:07
<john> Okay, got it.
20:09:01
<DanS working> :thumbsup:
20:09:18
<john> Thanks!
20:10:23
<DanS working> On my laptop I keep GT open to make entries when seen on webcam
20:11:11
<john> that will work for me... just need some practice...
20:11:23
<DanS working> Just toggle over to GT from webcam window
20:11:39
<DanS working> to make entry
20:12:01
<john> :lion:
20:12:32
<DanS working> No worries, we were all new to this once upon a time :)
20:14:50
<john> :thumbsup:
20:15:53
<Kevin L™ 🌵> They will red flag you anyway.
20:16:23
<john> Am I not allowed to enter times?
20:17:19
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Yes you can. I just get red flagged because of stupid things.
20:17:44
<DanS working> There are some gazers on GT who are, let us say "anal" about entries...
20:18:35
<john> Oh well it won't be my first mistake...
20:18:46
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Yes. One that ticked me off was a posted an ie time and was red flagged since I didn't post the actual start time.
20:18:55
<DanS working> Don't let them stop you from making legit entries
20:19:33
<john> Okay I will do what I can
20:21:41
<Kevin L™ 🌵> Sometimes it is hard, especially with these controls, to enter it so. Most of the time someone gets an accurate time so I let that stand. If a post doesn't show up after a few minutes I will post it when I have time.
20:22:53
<john> yeah usually there are plenty of folks on here who catch it. Just wondered if no one posts what to do.
20:24:39
<Kevin L™ 🌵> About half the time I am trying to log on after it kicks me off and it tells me I need authorization. :p
20:25:11
<john> LOL been there done that!
20:31:14
<john> riverside
20:52:26
<Bill> wow, Riverside hasn't been that early in a long time
20:53:26
<john> well I could be wrong Bill there was a lot of steam going on...
20:53:55
<john> OF
20:54:00
<Bill> np just wondering
20:56:55
<Bill> Short
20:57:32
<john> hard to see with the light or dark...
20:59:42
<Bill> Bee does not look good
21:00:12
<john> bummer
21:00:26
<Bill> take a quick look ar riverside
21:01:06
<Bill> sorry, please
21:02:29
<KorbenC> Hi Bill (Beverly?)
21:02:39
<Bill> no
21:02:51
<KorbenC> Well, I was close :P
21:03:02
<KorbenC> John, not sure about riverside but also not sure it was not riverside :(
21:03:05
<KorbenC> :)**
21:03:21
<john> LOL
21:03:26
<Bill> how do you go back that far
21:03:48
<KorbenC> The above recording as entitled: Hmmm
21:04:00
<Bill> yes
21:04:12
<KorbenC> ?
21:04:43
<john> I was try to catch bee and riverside...
21:04:47
<KorbenC> John, I would have entered that as Riverside, the steam is alot clearer on my recording than the getvideo
21:05:04
<john> :thumbsup:
21:06:05
<john> there was a lot of steaming going on in them thar trees... just sayin...
21:06:15
<KorbenC> Bill, did you get onto the recording?
21:06:34
<KorbenC> Yea, the interval makes sense too, 5h 41m isn't really anything surprising
21:06:45
<Bill> yes, is that something you do
21:07:22
<KorbenC> Bill, I am so confused
21:07:42
<KorbenC> Namely, what do I do?
21:08:12
<Bill> how do you get that hmmmm recording
21:08:36
<KorbenC> ./getvideo [how many minutes] Name
21:09:32
<Bill> thanks I thought one could go back only 20 minutes, my mistake
21:09:53
<KorbenC> Cool, they can do 30min now
21:10:36
<Bill> good to know
21:12:13
<john> I am going to leave it there for you late night viewers. Good night from wintery upper geyser basin.
