Lots of people waiting at Daisy. Maybe they know a good prediction time?
13:50:13
Not sure if we have tourists taking a break or sitters at BH, but lots of bodies there.
13:50:41
Nice steady steam from BH, but not too heavy yet.
13:51:33
I never got a good prediction time. Haven't seen it either.
13:52:16
BH was 0213 so guessing about the 1600 to 1700 time frame. Dittos on Grand.
13:52:38
Those are about the times on G.net too.
13:52:49
Did I see a note though that G.net isn't working?

Hi Jake!
13:56:36
I will see about getting the two sets of data the same later.
13:56:43
Hi Jake. Appreciate the data this am.
13:57:03
when I was testing some changes to GT.org last night, I made a mistake that didn't treat G.net so well when it pulled over my test entry
13:57:17
Oops!
13:57:20
Glennon said he can fix it when he gets back from the park next week
13:57:50
If we post to both sites today, we won't mess up the data will we?

no, feel free to post to both sites if you see that one is lacking

I think the databases info is now mirrored in each. Some observations made were put in as 'ie' because the original observer saw them on either the static cam or the stream and I wasn't sure which.
14:25:37
with the longish refresh rate on the static cams, it is hard to tell when an eruption actually starts.
