解説（安達）/ Comment by Makoto Adachi
　佐々木氏の観測では、12月2日に見られた、ダストストームは、全体がほろがっているように見える。また、Deucarionis regioが明るく
見えている。これは夕霧だろう。

According to Mr. Sasaki's observation, the dust storm seen on December 2 seems to have been smeared entirely. Also, 
Deucarionis region looks bright. This is late afternoon.

Here is a Mars image from 3rd December - a very poor oucome but thought it worth sending - 
just over 1000 frames out of 150,000 odd gives some idea of the conditions - but still, 
it does seem to suggest dust in western Argyre although obviously somewhat speculative tbh - 
splitting this colour camera's channels does appear to reveal it best in red & least in blue, 
but I don't find this approach anywhere near as definitive as when using a mono camera...
unfortunately out of the question in the circumstances as our primary target was again meant to be Uranus - 
but clouds stopped that possibility.
