Hi all,

The longitudes spanning the Str band, GRS, BA and SSTC ovals, the large NEB
barge plus associated rift (with a small bright spot near CM in 01:56 UT
image), and the NNTZ small red spot are seen.

The GRS, BA, NNTZ oval as well as some of the SSTC spots are seen as
methane bright. BA continbues to be seen as a single methane bright spot.

Methane images, but also IR filtered ones also show the SE disturbance,
once again approaching the GRS. It is interesting to notice the "blurring"
of the mid-SEB bright clouds in IR light  (also in red) near the SE
disturbance's longitudes (e.g near CM in 02:53 UT image). It is also always
dramatic how barges are almost invisible in IR.

Also notice the very obloque bright rifts crossing the NTB (e.g in the two
color images), and the still distinct redish NNTB segment (in the first
color image).

Good observations

Antonio
