<Kat> Tardy
07:36:33
<Kat> Wonder where all the gazers are?
07:41:46
<Mike J> Isn't that a Pete Seeger song? "Where have all the gazers gone? Long time gazing..."
07:42:20
<Kat> Mike J, I think you're right!
07:43:42
<Kat> Makes me wonder if some thing is going on elsewhere
07:43:42
<Mike J> i think the end of that verse is "Where have all the gazers gone. Sit at Fan while Steamboat goes. When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?"
07:44:22
<Kat> Love it!
07:45:47
<Kat> Usually someone makes the rounds before they head out!
07:46:19
<Kat> Looks smoky!
07:47:20
<Mike J> I've got friends visiting there from Phoenix. If it is smoky, I'll never hear the end of it. Hope it clears.
07:47:48
<Kat> :thumbsup:
08:33:37
<Katie š»> Morning
08:34:21
<Kat> Morning Katie
08:34:42
<Katie š»> Did you cause the smoke, Mike? If so, I'd like a word, please.
08:35:04
<Kat> :)
08:36:35
<Kat> Katie š», smoke up your way too?
08:39:51
<Katie š»> Kat, yup. It burned throat and eyes yesterday - then we had a major (damaging) wind event and now airflow is different, so better, but still bad
08:40:23
<Kat> Looks bad in the park today!
08:40:50
<Mike J> Kat, Smoke? What smoke? No smoke to see here. Just keep moving
08:40:59
<Katie š»> Can see the hills, though...
08:41:21
<Kat> Could be worse for sure
08:59:28
<Kat> Castle
09:06:36
<Kat> Oblong?
09:07:23
<Kat> Nope
09:11:04
<Kat> Mike J, LOL
10:00:37
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Perry Mason music again
10:00:58
<Katie š»> Happy driving
10:03:09
<Kevin L⢠šµ> :)
10:05:20
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Looks like I need my P95 respirator today
10:59:43
<Linda> I can smell the smoke, not good
11:00:18
<Linda> Good morning
11:00:33
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Morning
11:04:57
<Linda> Kevin L⢠šµ, how's weather by you?
11:05:43
<Kevin L⢠šµ> cooling a bit. Supposed to be mid 90s this weekend.
11:06:09
<Linda> Kevin L⢠šµ, that will be better
11:07:05
<Kevin L⢠šµ> For sure. Hasn't reached 100° yet today.
11:29:48
<2> wind looks to be clearing the smoke
11:30:48
<2> West Gate looks gloomy though
11:31:12
<2> looks like night time
11:33:26
<Linda> Some of that is clouds not all smoke
11:33:53
<Linda> Stunning sunset last night from storm
11:33:59
<2> West is brighter now. The AQI there is much higher than OF
11:34:14
<2> nice Linda
11:34:24
<2> did it actually rain some?
11:34:56
<2> I'm glad you got a 2 burst Grand, always fun seeing the pool rise up again.
11:34:59
<Linda> It did some, not a lot though I don't think
11:35:20
<2> where are you hanging out today?
11:35:33
<2> I bet Graham is off to another basin, no posts from him
11:36:03
<Linda> I will try for myn10th beehive and if the air clears a bit walk down to grand
11:36:22
<2> enjoy your last day
11:36:50
<Linda> 2, insaw him at sunset can't remember if he mentioned what he was doing today
11:38:37
<2> Did the queen die?
11:38:49
<GodSaveTheKing> Yes
11:38:50
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Yes
11:38:57
<2> maybe the new prime minister poisoned her
11:39:03
<GodSaveTheKing> https://www.bbc.com/
11:39:06
<2> wow, that was quick.
11:39:22
<2> I just saw a post of her greeting the new prime minister a few days ago
11:39:38
<Linda> Queen Elizabeth died
11:39:39
<GodSaveTheKing> Indeed, exactly as she should have gone.
11:39:55
<2> I wonder if Charles will let himself be passed over, ha
11:40:42
<GodSaveTheKing> I considered that when changing the name - figured it would work for either option.
11:41:02
<GodSaveTheKing> If Charles doesn't abdicate, I think the monarchy will be in a touchy spot.
11:41:12
<2> Camilla has waited her whole life to be queen, she would never let him
11:41:15
<2> imo
11:41:49
<2> Linda, it looks like it could rain there now
11:42:08
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Expensive soap opera....
11:42:53
<GodSaveTheKing> I have a soft spot for it, I think the world likes having Kings, Queens, Princes, and Princesses. Of course, it is not my tax dollars paying for it.
11:42:58
<2> the Times has a photo of her from Tuesday, she looked fine
11:43:17
<2> well they are one rich family, the Royals
11:43:29
<2> of the UK I mean, not that they all aren't
11:44:57
<GodSaveTheKing> Indeed
11:46:06
<2> Daisy
11:46:24
<2> struggling in the wind for height
11:46:29
<GodSaveTheKing> Such an odd feeling. She is not my queen but somehow I feel this.
11:46:45
<GodSaveTheKing> I think she was Queen for many, in a lot of ways.
11:46:48
<2> well she is an icon
11:48:10
<GodSaveTheKing> Yes, but not your average icon.
11:48:48
<2> since 1952, so many people's lifetimes
11:48:56
<GodSaveTheKing> At one point she ruled over the majority of the developed world.
11:49:29
<2> yeah, how sad is that really, hopefully a lot of the places that are still under the monarchy will move away from it now
11:49:45
<GodSaveTheKing> The institutional knowledge she directly worked with stretched back to the early 1800s. That's nearly 150 years.
11:51:33
<GodSaveTheKing> Will be interesting to see where the Monarchy goes from here.
11:55:16
<2> If Charles abdicates, people will embrace it more, yet I'd say chances of that are low
11:55:31
<2> that is a dark sky on OF static
11:56:01
<GodSaveTheKing> I think it will depend very much on how much people can consider the lessons of both the 1930s and the 1990s.
11:56:34
<2> in today's world, I would venture not many
11:58:10
<GodSaveTheKing> Same
11:58:54
<GodSaveTheKing> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles,_King_of_the_United_Kingdom
11:58:55
<Linda> I lost electric here
11:59:07
<GodSaveTheKing> Wikipedia moves about as quickly as Buckingham Palace haha
11:59:53
<Linda> Storms must have knocked out electric.somewhere
12:03:10
<Kevin L⢠šµ> They look nasty
12:03:25
<Betty> hi all
12:04:03
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Hi Betty. Got my Oktoberfest music on now.
12:06:03
<Betty> nice, Kevin :-)
12:07:20
<Betty> cam is stuck on eagles nest?
12:07:31
<Betty> nope, OF now
12:08:39
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Power knocks the controls out
12:09:20
<2> Kevin, did you transport to the basin?
12:09:45
<2> sky looks a lot better in this view
12:09:53
<Kevin L⢠šµ> I may have.
12:10:04
<2> :thumbsup:
12:10:23
<2> first DaveM, now you...
12:10:36
<2> the portal must be near Daisy,
12:11:08
<Betty> that would be fun
12:11:21
<2> seriously
12:11:48
<2> much more fun than your upcoming flights
12:12:14
<Kevin L⢠šµ> I would be one of those transporter malfunction accidents.
12:13:54
<Betty> will you change your Daisy entry?
12:14:06
<Betty> ah, you did
12:15:44
<Betty> OF
12:16:24
<Kevin L⢠šµ> A bit of a breeze there.
12:17:08
<2> still a mystery why people in the line of fire do not think about it before hand
12:18:07
<2> it rained in West. Maybe that rain went to the fire nearby
12:19:39
<KorbenC> I see the queen died :(
12:19:51
<Betty> yes
12:33:29
<Linda> Still pretty smoky and after the wind
12:34:44
<Linda> Betty, hi
12:34:46
<Linda> KorbenC, hi
12:34:52
<KorbenC> Linda, hi
12:35:05
<Betty> hi Linda
12:35:26
<GodSaveTheKing> bubblers?
12:36:02
<KorbenC> Not that I can see, might be convection out of BSB that you are seeing
12:36:30
<GodSaveTheKing> This was farther left of BSB
12:37:06
<KorbenC> I do not see any water in West, lmk what time on that video so I can take a look
12:38:02
<Linda> Oh some steam from bee
12:38:33
<Linda> Huge linear lodge cafeteria :(
12:38:44
<Linda> *line at
12:40:11
<GodSaveTheKing> I saw what looked like a nice puff of steam at 35:06 and again around 36:40 or so.
12:40:27
<KorbenC> Linda, might have to wait until the next OF
12:40:30
<GodSaveTheKing> Also think its likely to be reflections of passing clouds in that pool of water though.
12:41:25
<KorbenC> I dont see anything from the normal bubbler locations at those times, but I could be mistaken
12:41:36
<KorbenC> BH is pretty energetic right now tho
12:41:50
<Linda> Electric just went out again
12:41:59
<KorbenC> Thats not good
12:42:59
<Linda> No it's not I'm in OF lodge. Guess I'll go down to lower ham to watch bee
12:43:48
<Linda> Very smoky
12:48:12
<GodSaveTheKing> Anyone else curious how there can be (checks GT) 8 entries for Bank, and no in basin entry for Daisy?
12:48:46
<KorbenC> Cause the person really likes Bank?
12:48:48
<SantaFe108> uh oh my computer been on overnight
12:48:57
<KorbenC> hey Bryce
12:49:06
<SantaFe108> hello Korben
12:50:20
<GodSaveTheKing> There was that bubbler activity again
12:50:31
<KorbenC> Whatever the thing is I can see it
12:50:34
<GodSaveTheKing> I think they may be reflections off the pools somehow.
12:50:35
<SantaFe108> VLC refuses to work and I can't watch the browser stream :P
12:50:48
<Betty> hi SantaFe108
12:50:50
<GodSaveTheKing> I am going to pay attention next time someone walks by.
12:50:52
<KorbenC> the thing being the thing that I normally call "the thing"
12:50:57
<SantaFe108> Hi Betty
12:51:09
<GodSaveTheKing> Oh my god its reflections off passing people.
12:51:12
<GodSaveTheKing> HA
12:51:15
<KorbenC> lol
12:51:23
<Kevin L⢠šµ> The feed is down right now.
12:51:48
<KorbenC> Why did my feed just drop
12:51:57
<Betty> I have the circle of death
12:52:00
<SantaFe108> Oh so it s not just a me problem
12:52:01
<GodSaveTheKing> Anywho, RE: Bank - I am just impressed that someone logged eight eruptions of Bank and not the 70ft geyser erupting only 100ft away lol
12:52:05
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Power is out at OF
12:52:12
<KorbenC> I had VLC going until about two min ago
12:52:39
<SantaFe108> dammit
12:54:28
<GodSaveTheKing> Of course, I can recall one time sitting at the Beehive benches in a very, very, strong wind storm looking towards Depression and Lion and logging eruptions only to turn around and realize the Indicator had been erupting for at least five or six minutes but I never knew it because the wind was so bad that I couldn't hear it erupting.
12:57:37
<KorbenC> BHI
12:57:37
<KorbenC> .
12:57:37
<KorbenC> .
12:57:38
<KorbenC> .
12:57:38
<KorbenC> .
12:58:01
<GodSaveTheKing> Thanks for the reminder we can't see it lol
12:58:13
<KorbenC> Cam down still, but sending dings anyways
12:58:38
<GodSaveTheKing> You can send a text but note that the cam is down.
12:58:55
<KorbenC> I probably wont send text unless cam comes back up
12:58:57
<GodSaveTheKing> I got mine yesterday about three hours late which is uncommon for me
12:59:24
<GodSaveTheKing> I would send it and note it is down. If you wait, it may be too late.
12:59:36
<GodSaveTheKing> Plus, the off chance someone in the basin without a radio gets the text, too.
12:59:53
<GodSaveTheKing> I know if my radio went dead I would some times rely on a text as a backup.
13:00:50
<KorbenC> If you want to sned a text you can, I only send text when cam is up and when the camera is on it. Katie or Ryan, if you want to chime in here, I am not aware of what the idea is around stuff like this
13:02:42
<KorbenC> BH 1301
13:02:43
<KorbenC> .
13:04:26
<Betty> oh well...
13:04:47
<Kevin L⢠šµ> :p
13:04:48
<KorbenC> At least it went at an absolutely amazing interval
13:05:06
<KorbenC> Shortest interval in the last 100
13:06:48
<2BlueYam> First time in basin in 40 years and :bee: !
13:07:05
<KorbenC> YAY!
13:07:09
<Betty> congrats
13:07:27
<Linda> Wow almost missed that one. 10th bee for.me..
13:07:43
<KorbenC> Linda, yeah, it went early
13:08:19
<Linda> KorbenC, I saw you say it was being active so I drove to lower ham and indy was going
13:08:33
<KorbenC> :) Glad you got it
13:08:53
<Linda> KorbenC, thx. My work here.is.done lol
13:09:05
<Linda> Dome ie
13:09:10
<KorbenC> :P Are you gonna try and get out to Grand?
13:09:28
<Linda> KorbenC, I may take a ride very smoky here
13:09:57
<KorbenC> :thumbsup: Enjoy the AC!
13:10:47
<Linda> Would like to see.dome up close though
13:11:00
<Linda> KorbenC, thx
13:15:18
<KorbenC> Anyways, that was a really fun BH, spectacular from the cam! Have a good evening all.
13:27:56
<GodSaveTheKing> The Venn Diagram of folks who think the passing of QEII is nothing note-worthy and the folks who hold remarkably strong opinions seems to have a big overlap.
13:29:30
<Kat (phone)> Is the cam down?
13:29:47
<Betty> power outtage
13:30:10
<Betty> static out too
13:30:13
<Kat (phone)> Thanks, thought something was happening, I have the dreaded circle!
13:34:51
<GodSaveTheKing> Well, I will be back when the cam is up.
14:25:11
<TomK> Park wide power outage, Old Faithful emergency backup generator out also.
14:25:47
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Thanks Tom. We will blame it on Graham.
14:29:43
<TomK> Got the word from Joanne
14:30:34
<TomK> Possible cell tower will also shut down
15:03:02
<Linda> Wow, fishing bridge has power that is where I am
15:03:59
<Linda> storming here, temp dropped 15 degrees on the way
15:04:39
<Linda> this might not have been the day for a ride lol
15:33:51
<KorbenC> Cam back
15:47:21
<Michelle> This does not look good!
15:49:08
<kc (working)> 4 hailstorms in 90 mins apparently
15:54:58
<KorbenC> Riverside
15:57:26
<Michelle> Let me know when you have had enough fun and I will log in.
15:57:51
<Kevin L⢠šµ> zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
15:58:06
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Anytime you are ready.
15:59:19
<Michelle> ok I will give her a spin.
16:00:24
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Tell me when you are on
16:01:00
<Michelle> I'm in. Took a minute, but it let me.
16:01:46
<Kevin L⢠šµ> OK I amm out
16:02:31
<Michelle> Thanks for driving Kevin. Sounds like it was just like the roads up there today.
16:08:24
<Michelle> Yesterday i thought we missed Daisy, but it surprised us.
16:12:39
<Kevin L⢠šµ> Mostly pulled off at the rest area
16:13:01
<Michelle> Humidity is 100%, not sure if that was an actual Daisy or just steam back there
16:13:33
<Michelle> Rest area is a good place to be!!:)
16:13:44
<Kevin L⢠šµ> I think Daisy would be bigger
16:14:30
<Michelle> :thumbsup:

17:24:29
<Michelle> We are there
17:24:57
<KorbenC> Thank you
17:25:02
<KorbenC> amazing that it is still going, OMG!
17:25:11
<Michelle> So much steam, I wasn't sure
17:26:50
<KorbenC> and done!
17:34:55
<Michelle> Of course, as soon as you look away!
17:36:22
<Michelle> Daisy should be coming back around too.
17:55:23
<Michelle> :daisy:
18:01:00

18:17:07

18:21:06
<Delta4Heavy85> And Spasmodic
18:21:43
<Delta4Heavy85> Sure lots of steam from grand
18:23:43
<Michelle> Humidity is 100%!:)
18:24:13

18:25:03

<Michelle> :lion:
19:10:01
<Michelle> Which steam is more interesting. The hill or down basin?
19:10:13
<Kevin L⢠šµ> you could do an Oblong for us
19:12:07
<Michelle> Tardy
19:16:49
<Michelle> A break in the steam
19:17:24
<Kevin L⢠šµ> It's late.
19:19:50
<KorbenC> North Goggles extended fill, still up with steady bubbling. We are late in a series too. This one could be itneresting!
19:23:50
<KorbenC> Just dropped 1920, maybe we will get it when it refills here in a little while
19:26:01
<KorbenC> 1924 boiling above rim
19:28:07
<KorbenC> Pretty sunset!
19:28:14
<KorbenC> Michelle, are you driving?
19:28:33
<KorbenC> wb SF
19:28:39
<Michelle> Yes.
19:28:46
<SantaFe108> thanks
19:28:57
<KorbenC> Graham just said it was the best boil he has heard on NG in years, we have a very very very good shot of it erupting very soon!
19:29:35
<KorbenC> See PM Michelle :)
19:29:36
<SantaFe108> we should take a look
19:30:12
<KorbenC> SF, Late in Lion sereis extended fill, steady bubbling in NG. Dropped 1920 and had very strong boiling OVER the rim at 1924, which it was still downn
19:30:23
<SantaFe108> What the heck
19:30:29
<SantaFe108> now or never
19:30:41
<KorbenC> Agree SF
19:31:00
<KorbenC> Now NG is probably not going to go, but if there is any time it is gonna go its gonna be soon
19:32:12
<KorbenC (GO NG!> 1921 had quick and strong boiling at depth too, :)
19:32:40
<Michelle> Good?
19:32:51
<KorbenC (GO NG!> spectacular Michelle, thanks so much!
19:33:02
<SantaFe108> cmon NG
19:33:28
<Michelle> We are missing an amazing sunset!!:):):)
19:35:44
<KorbenC (GO NG!> NG probably had a fill duration more than an hour, so fill likely wont be for another few min incase you want to put it in wide view to see the sunset and NG
19:38:29
<Michelle> We are good. I am just messing with Korben.
19:39:12
<KorbenC (GO NG!> :p Pretty neat steamy mess out there tho
19:39:29
<Michelle> We are losing light though. Probably going to half to back out in a few minutes.
19:40:07
<KorbenC (GO NG!> :thumbsup: I would appreciate keeping it in view for as long as possible, with such a long fill duration it is probably gonna take a good while for it to refill
19:43:15
<Michelle> I need to start backing out.
19:43:44
<KorbenC (GO NG!> Understood Michelle, even hill view would work if NG goes, it would be a steam bomb
19:44:13
<Michelle> Gathered a little light from the sky that helped
19:45:07
<KorbenC (GO NG!> :)
19:47:18
<Michelle> NG
19:47:25
<KorbenC (GO NG!> I am gonna be disappointed if NG doesn't go here in th, we missed a great sunset
