Paul G. Abel
Seeing was fair and observing the planet in the daytime sky greatly reduced the glare.
A number of cloud markings were seen on the disk along with a bright spot on or near the limb in the south.
Bright Limb Band: Visible and complete
Terminator: Geometrically complete
Cusp Regions:  Southern cusp cap seemed to be brighter- northern cusp cap glimpsed with the W15 filter.
Cusp Collars:  Only the southern cusp collar was seen.

Antonio Cidadao
Clouds appeared before sunset and only cleared when Jupiter was very low and Venus not visible.
Some mid-altitude cloud features are seen, which rotate with time (gif of first and last images).
