Saturn Storm Dec 14th in very poor seeing

Hi All,

Imaged the storm in very poor seeing this morning, the storm is so bright that even in such horrendous conditions it is still clearly visible in the live feed. The jet stream is currently parked overhead and we are in a period of very unsettled weather, very unusual for the Australian outback , had the odd shower pass through this morning and for a while it looked like the clouds would not break up at all.

Have attached 1 RGB & 807nm IR data set but these were also effected to some degree by cloud. I apologize for the quality of the images but even these clearly show the elongated state of this storm. I believe Anthony had better seeing this morning, he is about 1000 km to the East of me, his data would suggest this is now 2 storms. I hope for some better conditions over the next few weeks.

Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
