When I first went out the seeing was lousy,but at exactly 10:36 PM EST the seeing improved greatly. Here is an image FYI.

The seeing was average to poor and the transparency was good.

T = +7°C

Attached are two drawings of Jupiter I made on the 21st November.
Seeing was rather variable,but there were a number of interesting features present:

Drawing 1: Shadow of Ganymede near the proc. limb. Seeing variable.
A number of dark sections present in the SEBz,
GRS coming onto the disk. Ganymede in transit but not seen.
NMumber of festoons in the EZ,and a number of darker sections in the NEB.
The northern edge of the NTB dark and irregular.

Drawing 2: Ganymede now nearly off the disk.
Some wonderful detail in the SEB just fol. the GRS.
Seeing has improved somewhat. STropB dark for a short section fol. the GRS.

NEBのbargeが接近し、21日には合体し1つになっています。 以前のようにNEBにBarge模様が見るようになってきました。

Peter Edwards(280mm SC)
Here are two images taken on the 21st Nov under reasonable seeing conditions.
I used Winjupos to derotate and hence had to paste back in Ganymede separately.
Does anyone know if Winjupos team intend to compensate for moon motion?
The template circled the moon correctly for each sub image.

Some imagery from the 21-22nd is attached. Finally some very good seeing before the clouds arrived.
The GRS is seen moving off the disk.
Ganymede was in transit earlier on and its seen here moving away from the planet (note the bright Osiris crater in the southern hemisphere.)
Certainly the best night of what has been an apparition seriously blighted by poor weather
