Yellowstone’s Steamboat Geyser Is Incredibly Active Right Now, and They Don’t Know Why

Yellowstone National Park’s Steamboat Geyser blasted steam and water into the air at 12:52 p.m. local time on June 12. Then, three days, 3 hours and 48 minutes later — at 4:40 p.m. on June 15 — it blasted steam and water into the air again, according to the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS)’s Volcano Hazards Program. That’s a new record for the geyser, according to the Billings Gazette: the shortest time ever recorded between eruptions.
