| Comments: | SV shoulder and back channel had flowing water on arrival at 0825. Activity progressed consistently throughout the day with only a few short lulls. Final push started around 1353 and slowly built over the course of two hours. SV began having sustained "fountaining" minors 20-30 min. prior to eruption. North followed suit and increased in volume, height, and vertical. There were at least two "wall of water" minors in the five minutes prior to the eruption. I did not note times because I was trying to record video and also brace for the incoming thunderstorm. Eruption at 1552 beat the onset of the storm by 2-3 minutes. The eruption was not that tall (for Steamboat) due in part to the high winds. Heavy rain gave way to two rounds of hail-sized hail during the 26 min. water phase. North transitioned to steam at 1618. It transitioned back to water 1700, followed by full pauses and restarts at 1701 and 1702. It again reverted to steam at 1708, then went back to water at 1710. It had additional pauses and restarts at 1711, 1714, 1715, 1717, 1718, 1720, and 1721. Total of nine pauses and restarts. Great rainbows and drenching of the platforms once the sun came out during steam phase. In full steam phase when I left just after 1800. |
