Imaged Saturn July 23rd 2019 targeting the 2010 GWS AV. It should have been transiting the CM at 11:51 UTC.  My final 685nm-Pass IR data set was centered on 11:54 UTC and the AV is very close to the CM. I measure it to be at approx Lat+43.6 L3 194.7. The AV is resolved in all IR data sets with IR data centered on 10:55 UTC,11:23 UTC and 11:54 UTC. The R,G,B data was nowhere near good enough to resolve this feature while the IR data was only just good enough to resolve it. Each year it has become a greater challenge to resolve this AV,clearly it will require good seeing going forward to continue to track it.
