This is a long event, bright enough to get well at 4x or perhaps 8x, and lasts 4.7 seconds. Sandy, Kirk, and I are all well within the path. Karl would have to drive down to Castelegno's to be comfortably south of the northern limit.
Alt=59, Az=134 in Gemini, 1/3 of the way from Alhena (Gamma Gem) to Procyon

From examining the PyOTE light curve, the pattern is for the D moment is shown visually as a drop vertically, and the time given in the log file is the time for 1 integration later. The R rise line is placed at the point the light resumes full brightness or close to it. Again, the R time in the log file corresponds to the time stamp one dot later than the vertical rise line R.
