They
seem to show a progression of a dust event that could be entrapped in a jet
stream from the NPH.
The
image from the 13th clearly shows a streak of dust that originates from Umbra /
Utopia and wraps around Nodas Alcyonius. The image from the 12th
shows the start of the event coming out of Umbra.

Thanks for this image, Johan.
It appears that the NPH is thinning somewhat, consistent
with late winter, as it really breaks up in another 15 degrees of Ls. As it thins,
it becomes partially transparent in its northernmost part around the pole, so
that its reflection is less intense there. The southern edge of the NPH stays
relatively dense (brighter white) for longer. Some images might show a crisp
dividing line between the dense edge area and the North Pole area, in the next
few weeks.
I agree with the clouds in

Dear all,
An image from this morning under
rather poor conditions. The NPH still looks quite complex and duskier towards the
center. It is extended towards mid-latitudes near the CM, or is it a
longitudinal cloud band? Morning and southern limbs arcs are visible. A faint
evening cloud appears over Tharsis (it was visible on Oct 12 as well, but
fainter).
