Comments: Saturn April 7th in fair seeing, not as good as April 6th but nevertheless resolving components of the North Polar Storm. Again the linear structure of components within the polar storm are resolved with the morphology being a mix of individual bright cells and a continuous bright band from limb to limb. I measure individual bright cells to be at approx Lat+64.2 L3 90.8, Lat+64.4 L3 76.2; note the image used for these measurements was s2019-04-07_19-06_ir_tba the zoom function within WinJUPOS was set at 2.05. Again, the animation, which is only 2 frames covering 25 minutes of rotation, hint at other structure between the linear band and the hexagon. The two bright spots within the band are well seen in the animation.
