Steamboat quietly steaming. Cistern Springs is completely drained, no sign or sound of water, entire crater is dry and white. I have not seen Cistern this quiet and dry all year, not to say that it has not looked this way in recent past. Emerald Springs is 3-4″ below overflow (I did not notice if it was overflowing this morning as I was focused on the new bubbler). Bubbler is putting out a substantial amount of runoff, maybe equal to what Emerald had been, and is continuous, 6-12″ high. – https://geysertimes.org/note.php?id=9856
