On this image a large dust storm is croossing the NPH (left image bottom) at Niliacus Lacus / Mare Acidalium region. And throughout the regions high altitude cloud formations can be seen.

Great image. You are nailing this opposition!

Thanks Rick, For its size this time around lots of details are still visible.

Bob King from Duluth, Mn. Published the photo with a fine article of the storms in Mars.

I was wondering how anyone in Duluth was seeing Mars. They are getting worse weather than we are thanks to lake effect snow. They are about 4 hours drive nearly due east of me.

Hello Efrain:
You have caught perfectly the storm on the pole.
Congratulations, are a magnificent photo.
Many greetings
Cesar

Thanks Cesar, Right now i'm facing three days of clouds and rain . Clear Skies.

Efrain, this image is just amazing. Fabulous job.

I've been either rained or clouded out for quite a while now, but we can always use more rain here in Southern California, so I won't complain -- too much.
