Dear sirs, slightly better seeing today, still not allowing UV imaging (mostly because of strong wind gusts).
A distinct cloud interface (bright/dark; arrows) with two linear segments, preceded by a turbulent "pentagonal" large area (with "N" and "p" particularly dark limits) was the main feature visible today.
The above mentioned "cloud interface" does resemble a cloud discontinuity, but is different from the features seen 4 (July 23) and 5 days ago (July 22; both included on the image for comparison). That seen on July 22 (5 days ago), previously interpreted as a "forming cloud discontinuity" is similar to the dark "p" limit of today's "pentagonal" area seen today. On the other hand, the "fading" cloud discontinuity, observed on July 23 (4 days ago; and previously also at 5 day intervals) is different from the "cloud interface" seen today (arrows). As the cloud discontinuity (fading) is supposed to be seen tomorrow, good seeing would be nice to check for its presence.
