Here Jupiter with the GRS on September 29th.   Conditions were better than average with humidity and temperature being very pleasant.

To use the change in weather, I had to do Mars this morning.  Jupiter did not work out last night but this morning the seeing was good, but the humidity really was high.  I barely made it for one image before I started noticing a drop in luminace in the capture program as my primary started to show signs of condensation.  The 12 Volt hair dryer did wonders!  Here the image from this morning.  Aetheria visible on the evening limb, Syrtus Major extending on the right to the equator on the right half of the image and Nodus Alcyonius noticeable in between.
