Small clouds over Moab and Arabia and a light haze over Chryse visible. Rifts appear along the NPC edge. Mediocre seeing and gusty winds did not allow ultraviolet imaging.

Attached is a drawing of Mars I made on the morning of the 24th januar 2012. Seeing was variable and I could go much beyond x250. Still, with a D=11.0", there was enough details to see.
Syrtis Major was well on the disk- the far south it seemed that the Hellas basin was rather bright, and may well have contained a number of bright clouds. Similarly the Eridania/Ausonia region was also bright. Syrtis Major region was dark and very prominent. The Mare Tyrrhenum was also dark and well defined. Bright clouds present in Aeria and Arabia? On the proc side the end of the Mare Cimmerium was present. Those wonderful delicate extensions of Cimmerium which extend down into Aeolis were also present, and contained a number of bright region. The dark streak north of Cimmerium I took top be Aetheria in which case Elysium seemed to be rather vague and ill defined.
The dark Boreosyrtis well defined, looked like there might have bee a bright region in Dioscuria encroaching into Boreosyrtis. NPC bright, well defined and noticeably smaller than previously observed.
Clouds came up at 0206UT, and I was forced to stop observing. Pity.
