Still waiting on good seeing, but making the best of what I can get. Hellas is seen on the morning limb coming into view. There is a yellowish haze over Hellas you can see easily in Red. Perhaps some dust activity. THEMIS indicated some as of a few days ago.

Thanks guys. Whats cool is that the latest THEMIS data shows some dust starting to kick up in Hellas about 24 hours ago. Seems to have gained some steam. That dust in the N. Hemisphere has died out already.
