解説(安達)
 Ethan Chappel氏やPaul Maxson氏の画像にはdust stromの雲がHellasの外壁に沿って
非常に明るくなっている様子が記録されている。北側や西側への広がりは起こったほど
起こらなかったようだ。Hellasの中央部はdust の雲は淡くなっている。今回のdust stromは
中規模のダストストームのように見える。Paul Maxson氏の画像ではHellasから北側に
広がる様子もはっきりと記録されている。しかし、雲はLibyaにはまだ届いていない。
Clyde Foster氏の観測した火星面は、これらのダストストームのない中間の地域に当たる。
それによれば、この地域にはまだ何も影響はないことが分かった。

 The state that a cloud of dust strom becomes very well acquainted with an image 
of Mr. Ethan Chappel and Mr. Paul Maxson along an outer wall of Hellas is recorded. 
The expanse to the north side and the west did not seem to happen as expected. 
In the central part of Hellas, the cloud of dust becomes light. 
This dust strom looks like the dust storm of the middle scale. 
 The state of the cloud opening in the north side is recorded with the image of 
Mr. Paul Maxson clearly by Hellas. However, the cloud has not yet reached Libya. 
The Mars side which Mr. Clyde Foster observed is a middle area without these dust storm. 
According to it, this area understands that there is not yet any influence.

Hellas Basin and the area west of it still looks fairly bright,
but it's hard to tell if anything significant has changed since I last imaged two nights ago.

Clyde Foster(355mm SCT)
Returned from my road trip to Cape town a few hours ago and was keen to see the latest conditions on Mars,given the recent activity in and around Hellas.
Unfortunately seeing was rather poor. However,Olympus Mons and the Tharsis volcanoes are detectable,
and to me there does not seem to be any significant activity on this face of Mars. The cloud in the North Polar region seems fairly well consolidated.

Paul Maxson(250mm DK or 315mm DK)
Better seeing.
