Clouds prevented observations on March 04/05 before shadow ingress. I found it 3 minutes after shadow egress (00:14) with mag 10.6 steady (00:17). At about 00:21 UTC the first flash to mag 9 appeared. Following flashes were brighter and reached about mag 6. Last flash (mag 9 again) was about 00:24 UTC.
