Potential extent of the S Senkyo albedo change as of Dec 20, 2010 (left). By Feb 19th Cassini imaged the northern edge of the dark triangular area (right). Could be wrong, but it appears to be a series of partially filled playa.

edit: I realized the scale of the images posted were in error and so have replaced the previous figure with the one below that more accurately shows the Dec 20 albedo change and extent and subsequent Feb 19th image that provided a limited view of the northern edge of the region showing what may be a series of partially wet playa compatible with a deluge from the 'arrow' storm of T72.
