Hi all,here's an image of Jupiter from a few hours ago showing the mess
that's being made of the NEB by the NTB storm #1 and it's wake. The head
of NTB storm #1 is visible at top right and the tail extends all the way
to the left and over the limb. There are obvious intrusions into the
NEB,and in CH4 data (probably to be posted tomorrow) this region of the
NEB contains many methane-dark areas.

Hi all,here's the full set of images from last nights session. For
completeness I'm including here the RGB image I sent out yesterday
evening. The Ch4 image shows a large methane-dark complex region around
the disturbed NEB.

I did not expect to image today.  The sky was overcast all day.
In fact,looking at the satellite image,it was clouds all over the Visayas. I had two imaging runs today.
The fist was taken in an opening in the direction of Jupiter.  After an hour,the sky cleared!
Seeing was average but transparency was poor due to clouds and haze.

Jupiter is very busy these days.  In the first images,we can see the tail end of the first NTB outbreak with the 3rd  outbreak closing in.
Unfortunately,similar to previous occurrences of these type of outbreaks,the 3rd outbreak would die when it reaches the tail of the first outbreak.
Note the small bright spots on the tail of the first outbreak.  Are these anti-cyclones?

On the second run,we can see the GRS,Oval BA and the 2nd outbreak.
The 2nd outbreak has really developed and it looks stunning!  The GRS and Oval BA are very well resolved.
Note the interesting dark band that starts from the North of the GRS all the way through the "chimney".

Conditions not quite as good as the last two evenings,and deteriorating quickly,preventing a good look at the extended tail of outbreak #1.
The NEB outbreak that can be seen is very bright in RGB and IR,but not so much in CH4,whilst the NTB outbreak remains very bright in CH4.
The RGB has the Juno PJ29 equatorial crossing 18deg past the CM,the IR 25deg and the CH4 33deg,
so hopefully giving a reasonable view of the equatorial and southern track 3 days before flyby.

Last evening,benefitting from a good seeing just after sunset,
I was able to image the spectacular evolution in the NTB and NTZ.

Terrible sky conditions caused RGB sets to go straight to the rubbish bin but IR 642 and CH4 were of some quality.
Reddish sunsets due to smoke from Pantanal fires in the high atmosphere over Sao Paulo.
Pantanal is a natural region that has the world's largest tropical wetland but facing severe drought this year.
Pantanal is 1.700 km distant from Sao Paulo city and it gives us an idea about the dimension of what is going on there.

Poor seeing continues for Jupiter from the UK. Attached is an image showing disturbed turbulent NEB and Callisto.

Jupiter images from September 13,2020,showing the first NTB disturbance effects on the NEB.
Poor seeing in the RGB data,so I had to mix it with the IR. The low altitude of the planet is not helping me much…

Andy Casely
Here are a set of two each of RGB,IR & CH4 from poor conditions on 13th September.
They show Outbreak #3 transiting,and developing its tail,
and are followed by the more well-developed Outbreak #2 above the GRS.
The GRS is rising; despite poor conditions,the second CH4 is OK.
Clear skies all,
