Dear sirs,still poor conditions,with wind gusts,but attempted UV imaging in addition to IR.
Cloud discontinuity continues to be visible,near the terminator (arrows) perhaps even better than it was 5 and 10 days ago (comparison images from July 23 and 18 are included).
The increased visibility today was perhaps due to two (N and S) extensive/dark and turbulent regions that were seen preceding the CD.
Another IR dark area was seen at the NPR (arrowhead).
The single UV image that I obtained is of extremely poor quality,only allowing the detection of a triangular and very UV bright equatorial region near the limb (arrowhead) and a darker region near the terminator (arrow),〓 NPR was brighter than the S counterpart.
Atmospheric rotation is depicted in the IR gif animation (9:54UT and 11:25UT images)
Since the CD continues to be well detected at the predicted dates and periodicity,and since it is an isolated feature,I wonder about the nature and evolution of the other candidate(s) seen yesterday.
