Christopher Go (355mm SC)

Seeing was excellent again this morning.

3 big red spots visible in this image.
The three reds spots are bright in the Methane band image but dark in the UV image.
The GRS is very prominent. and well resolved.
A lot of details can be seen inside the GRS.
The NNTZ LRS can also be seen.
It is fully red now with a dark ring on it's edge.

The NEW red spot is what once was White Oval Z. Last February this white oval had a merger with another NEBn white oval.
Interestingly,it became very bright in Methane band starting this season!
Now it has a reddish haze. Will this turn very red like the NEB red ovals in the 1970s? Or will this reddening be temporary?
(Thanks Agustin!) So please keep monitoring this spot.

Note that the STrZ preceding the GRS has a reddish tinge as noted by Damian Peach.
The SEB is very complex. Note the outbreak following the GRS.
The NEB also looks very busy with a lot of EZ festoons intereacting with the NEB.

Methane-band image of Jupiter form this morning showing the various high-altitude (bright) storms.
The newest storm of interest is just left of centre in the NTZ. The GRS is bottom left.
There looks to be clearing in the cloud desk just below it (dark on this image).
