The Volcano Watchers

Inclement Weather Announcement:

The following is a message from Tuxedo, Superintendent of Volcano Updates

The safety of our team is a top priority. After monitoring the weather conditions and road conditions in West Tennessee and due to power outages, all volcano updates and extra activities are canceled for Friday February 4, 2022. A decision regarding the status of our offices will be made by 5:00 pm this evening!

As a result, all Volcano updates will be CANCELED on Thursday February 3, 2022. All extra activities will be suspended. A decision for Friday will be made tomorrow afternoon.

STEAMBOAT COUNTER

To keep track of the geysering, we will keep an updated count of Steamboat water eruptions on this page. In 2018, Steamboat erupted 32 times -- a new record for a single calendar year! That record was shattered in 2019 with 48 eruptions. So far the geyser has erupted 11 times in 2020. All times below are local.
