ASTRO: Mars dust storm alert (no pic)

Greetings all,
The 2007 apparition has began with an intense, dense dust storm forming
on Mars. The first image came in 2 days ago and only a few have followed
due to the small size of Mars, about 6.5 arcsecs. I'm going to give it a
shot as soon as seeing allows. But for those planetary imagers out there,
this would be a good target. This is an interesting storm, and might end up
planet encircling. If the storm stays dense and goes global, it could be
bad news for the rovers
