A good day to sleep in and get a late start. Unfortunately, that also meant missing the nicest part of the day. By the time I got out and about, it was overcast and humid.
Did catch a Daisy eruption which lastest 3m11s. Splendid's Side Boiler vent was active up to a meter high up until the last minute before the eruption, and resumed playing about six minutes after the Daisy eruption start. A minute or so later the Main Vent joined in. There's no sign of any increased overflow from Splendid.
Went out a little early for the next Grand, in order to stay ahead of the incoming weather. It was sprinkling a bit heading out on the bike, but stopped by the time I arrived.
It took over twenty minutes before I saw the first Turban eruption, so it appeared that I had just missed a Turban Interval delay. A few Turban intervals later, the rain started up enough to require a raincoat and umbrella, but really didn't start raining until the eighth Turban eruption I saw.
It was two more Turban eruptions before Grand finally erupted. Vent started to overflow well before Turban, and it was over half a minute before Grand joined in. It was a steamy eruption, but I was able to see Vent moments after it started. The bursting quieted down and stopped giving a burst duration of 8m19s. It was hard to see Grand's vent in all the steam, so the second burst started with little warning. Vent and Turban quit less than a minute after Grand ended, which is a bit faster than normal.

The rains stopped on the bike ride back to the cabin.
