Hi Trevor,
Thanks for the info, this all sounds very exciting! The timing I gave is accurate to within 10 mins or so, so considering the error the feature I saw is quite likely the dark tail that you mentioned from the bright spot. I didn't see a bright spot, but the seeing was very bad most of the time, only stabilising for short periods. The dark feature was definitely elongated, so this seems a likely candidate.
As I said before I've been looking at Jupiter a lot over this apparition and this feature definitely looked 'new'.
@Suzy, I've been enjoying the Red Spot too without the SEB being there, but still wait with interest for an SEB revivial, it's supposed to be quite spectacular.
Cloudy again here in Canberra but will take another look whenever possible.
Cheers all.
Dave W
