06:23:48 <CraigC> I can't see anything
06:24:18 <CraigC> Joe, you caught a lot of stuff overnight
06:26:02 <Joe> trying to grt a view
06:30:48 <Joe> Bee
06:34:54 <Joe> lion
06:35:21 <CraigC> can barely see it on my view
06:35:57 <Joe> same here
06:37:44 <Joe> not enough light hadt zoom allthe way out
06:39:25 <Joe> shoot! I missed Daisy
06:45:43 <Joe> In retrospect, I should have stayed in night view for Bee, I think it would have been easier to see. :(
06:46:21 <Joe> CraigC, the cam is all yours
06:46:23 <CraigC> daisy will get caught later
06:53:09 <CraigC> Joe, have you had cam dropping out?
06:53:30 <Joe> no not at all
06:53:41 <CraigC> just did
06:54:49 <Joe> Craig could you see any of that Bee?
06:55:07 <CraigC> I saw faint plume of steam
06:56:01 <CraigC> about the time that you called Lion, it was visible more than when you called the Bee
06:57:23 <Joe> my recording is ugly, Lesson learned stay in night view for dark bees
07:00:01 <CraigC> that isnt the right time frame for bee
07:00:47 <Joe> well you had quite a dropout the getvfideo only goes back that far, shoot
07:00:56 <CraigC> ohhhh
07:03:09 <CraigC> Joe, does using a preset automatically make autofocus click on?
07:03:37 <Joe> yes
07:03:58 <CraigC> noted :)
07:04:28 <Joe> and on OF preset it turns F.Auto on
07:05:14 <Joe> but I think you know that
07:06:05 <CraigC> I didnt. I never use preset #1, only #10
07:06:29 <CraigC> sometimes 9, and 22
07:06:44 <Joe> I would glance at bee on your shift today, just in case I was wrong
07:07:07 <CraigC> ok, but I highly doubt that was not bee
07:08:04 <Joe> brb, coffee time
07:08:45 <Dave from B> Good morning gentlemen?
07:08:53 <CraigC> Dave from B, howdy
07:15:11 <Joe> Dave from B, "gentlemen?" hmmm, you might be right.
07:17:23 <Joe> looks like LS
07:18:22 <CraigC> :thumbsup:
07:18:26 <Joe> yep
07:19:28 <Joe> 0713 ie
07:24:34 <CraigC> people walking back and forth with lights behind OF
07:27:41 <Joe> someone off trail at dome
07:28:34 <CraigC> Joe, maybe on observation overlook trail
07:28:48 <CraigC> it skirts behind dome
07:29:20 <Joe> yes I see that now, thanks
07:30:27 <CraigC> I think they were not sure, though, they seemed to be going back and forth towards china springs area
07:36:21 <CraigC> :gt:
07:45:10 <CraigC> stepping away for a sec
07:48:03 <CraigC> Roar
07:52:18 <CraigC> :lion:
07:52:59 <CraigC> minor
08:14:05 <CraigC> :daisy:
08:19:44 <CraigC> :lion: ie
08:21:45 <Dave from B> Save some geysers for me, please
08:22:08 <CraigC> Dave from B, when are you on?
08:22:29 <CraigC> this lion is a surprise
08:23:48 <Dave from B> 12-14 to make up for my missed shift yesterday
08:24:14 <CraigC> :thumbsup:
08:24:33 <CraigC> not sure when someone comes on next, I'm happy to pass it on
08:25:49 <CraigC> tardy
08:26:26 <Joe> open 1000 to 1600, Katie usually covers it until we find another volunteer.
08:26:54 <CraigC> :thumbsup:
08:33:01 <Dave from B> I wonder if Plume will ever wake up
08:35:08 <Joe> GOSA overnight shows bee, it also shows that if I had not moved the camera we would have seen it much better
08:38:41 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Good morning
08:38:54 <CraigC> Katie 🐻 🏈🐻, howdy
08:53:26 <CraigC> nice lb
09:27:56 <CraigC> :gt:

10:00:55 <CraigC> I am leaving cam here, bye folks
10:01:09 <Joe> CraigC, bye
10:01:22 <Katie 🐻 🏈> CraigC, thanks for driving. I'll take the wheel until noon when Dave takes over.
10:01:31 <CraigC> :thumbsup:
10:02:25 <Joe> oblong
10:07:16 <Dave from B> oblong now? with also a 926ie?
10:08:05 <Katie 🐻 🏈> gotta log in again
10:08:43 <Joe> looks like a contuniation
10:26:27 <Katie 🐻 🏈> I missed when Riverside started
11:42:10 <Betty> :daisy:
11:56:13 <Dave from B> Looks like my shift is going to be a snoozefest.
11:56:44 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Dave from B, maybe something unexpected will happen!
11:58:29 <Dave from B> Maybe a bear will wake us up
11:59:00 <Betty> hi Dave from B, Katie 🐻 🏈🐻
11:59:06 <Katie 🐻 🏈> I am going to actually leave my desk and go get some lunch while you have the wheel. NOt immediately, but during that time
11:59:11 <Dave from B> Hi Betty and Katie
11:59:38 <Dave from B> Katie, I'm ready when you are
11:59:48 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Dave from B, have a good drive!
12:03:01 <Dave from B> Sawmill is off
12:03:11 <Dave from B> not sure when it turned off
12:03:46 <Betty> Sawmill turned off ie :-)
12:05:08 <Betty> looking for a bear?
12:06:27 <Dave from B> for anhything that moves
12:08:43 <Betty> you can look for no-tail-bison ;-)
12:09:49 <Dave from B> haha. I don't see an non human 4 legged creatures
12:13:37 <Betty> I can see our room
12:24:01 <CD> bUlger
12:53:01 <Katie 🐻 🏈> 399 struck by vehicle and killed - press release from US FWS
12:59:22 <Dave from B> wow...darn
13:01:36 <Dave from B> I didn't think Castle was due
13:03:19 <Dave from B> How old was 399?
13:03:24 <Dave from B> 18-20?
13:03:33 <Katie 🐻 🏈> 28
13:03:42 <Dave from B> wow
13:26:19 <Betty> windy out there
13:31:27 <Dave from B> Daisy 1331
13:43:08 <Dave from B> I'm assuming this is a new Grotto eruption. I don't know the start time
13:58:00 <Dave from B> Good afternoon CraigM
13:59:16 <Dave from B> Sawmill Group has to be ready for some action soon
13:59:30 <Dave from B> Katie, are you ready to take back the reins?
13:59:48 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Yup
14:00:08 <Dave from B> It's all yours.
14:00:22 <CD> Thanks got driving Dave from B!
14:01:15 <CD> Sawmill
14:01:17 <Dave from B> you bet. Caleb, what's next at Sawmill Group?
14:01:24 <Dave from B> darn
14:01:29 <Dave from B> wrong answer
14:01:38 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Dave from B, thanks for driving
14:01:47 <CD> Dave from B, Probably tardy in about 40m
14:01:54 <Dave from B> Thanks for bailing me out yesterday
14:02:11 <CD> If sawmill does a medium to long duration eruption
14:12:10 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Little Squirt IE
14:37:29 <Katie> power outage in Missoula - if another camop is here, please take the wheel
14:42:40 <Dave from B> I'll be leaving soon. I will move it to a wide angle
14:43:46 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Did OF erupt?
14:44:17 <Dave from B> The prediction dropped off NPS so I was assuming it did
14:44:39 <Katie 🐻 🏈> yeah, it di
14:44:44 <Katie 🐻 🏈> I scrolled static back
14:44:57 <Dave from B> Humanoids are gone
14:45:44 <Katie 🐻 🏈> 2:33
14:51:13 <Dave from B> Who comes on next?
14:51:58 <Ron> Not geyser or YS related but I just heard the sad news about 399
14:52:07 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Dave at 4:00
14:53:07 <CD> SAwmill off
14:54:06 <Dave from B> Time to head to the club. Katie, where would you like me to leave it?
14:54:36 <Katie 🐻 🏈> Here is fine. I'm less scrambled responding to 8 million alarms now
14:55:00 <Katie 🐻 🏈> I'll just go wide down basin so we can catch Daisy if I get slammed again
14:55:20 <Dave from B> Thanks. Have a good night
17:44:35 <CalebD> Tardy ie!
17:44:40 <CalebD> Tardy Cycle!
17:49:28 <JarnoO> Tardy was already ie at 1728
17:50:32 <CalebD> JarnoO, THanks, missed the downbasin pan, entry updated
17:50:49 <JarnoO> well, I already logged it at that time
18:01:32 <CalebD> Oblong
18:17:29 <JarnoO> If I had to say anything about the chances for a Penta with this Tardy solo, I'd say it's higher than usual. Previous Sawmill was 52m, thus indicating the next Sawmill would very likely have been a long eruption. I think Penta generally only has a fair chance at erupting at that point in a Sawmill cycle. Couple that with ridiculously low chances on a Tardy solo in general, and you get an even...
18:17:36 <JarnoO> ... lower chance at Penta
18:18:50 <CalebD> JarnoO, And spasmodic (At least steam wise) still seems to be ie
18:19:40 <CalebD> Daisy window
18:20:08 <CalebD> JarnoO, Also the suspected short duration major in may was after a similar setuo
18:20:12 <CalebD> *april
18:21:37 <JarnoO> My thinking is that the usual flow of water is from Spasmodic to Old Tardy, then takes a turn towards Sawmill. Reason being that OT generally only erupts near or during IBEs. It then turns towards Tardy (note how it usually only has short eruptions and often only well into Sawmill, thus indicating it's starved from energy) and only then, finally, makes the turn towards Penta
18:23:02 <JarnoO> Doesn't mean there no water or heat at all making it into the extreme ends of the complex - I think it's just that the primary flow can only barely make it past Sawmill when it's erupting
18:23:24 <CalebD> sawmill posted in-basin?
18:24:07 <CalebD> I wonder if a low pool eruption
18:25:43 <JarnoO> After the complex goes in a deep drain, I believe the superheated water turns to steam. By doing so, all remaining water is pushed out to somewhere. Initially that'd be Tardy (i.e. it has steamy eruptions), but this subsequently spreads out across the complex. Still only seems enough to do either a Penta steam/mixed or follow-up Sawmills (and once upon a time also Churns), but at least there's...
18:25:55 <JarnoO> ... a higher chance for Penta to do something due to that surge of steam
18:26:19 <CalebD> Spatter
18:27:50 <CalebD> Tardy off?
18:28:17 <JarnoO> Obviously a wonky comparison, but one might think of it as a daily mini-disturbance because of the sudden change in system state (let's just keep it at the proper term, "deep drain", and immediately forget "mini-disturbance" ;))
18:28:59 <CalebD> THat tardy off happens just before Penta in April...
18:29:08 <CalebD> Ugh, now were on Daisy
18:31:27 <JarnoO> Sawmill
18:31:43 <CalebD> NOO
18:31:55 <JarnoO> to be fair, Tardy was already off
18:31:58 <CalebD> Darn
18:32:05 <CalebD> JarnoO, Yeah
18:32:07 <JarnoO> Daisy close
18:32:08 <CalebD> To bad
18:34:19 <JarnoO> 1819 Tardy duplicates 1728ie. In any case, 58m < d < 1h09m
18:37:25 <JarnoO> Though merely a theory, but based on what I recall, I think one Sawmill equals half a Tardy, and one Sawmill equals two Pentas. I recall a couple of instances where one Tardy was followed by a Sawmill with half that duration or, in other instances, the "next duration up" if you divide the Tardy duration by half
18:38:42 <JarnoO> And based on a couple of instances in the logbooks, Penta can go to steam shortly after it has had a duration of, I think, 90m+, which, doubled, would be about the duration necessary to push the system to a deep drain
18:39:57 <JarnoO> anyways, it's still a theory, but, nonetheless, an interesting perspective to look from
18:40:17 <CalebD> :thumbsup:
18:41:01 <JarnoO> Fairly well-organized complex even if it appears random, if I do say so myself
