In 2007, a great NTBs jetstream outbreak led to revival of the NTB, and we were then able to follow the evolution of the N. Temperate domain during the subsequent years, with images of unprecedented quality and frequency.  These studies revealed sequential developments which clearly had parallels in previous cycles, and may well be a standard aftermath of a great outbreak and revival.  In particular a North Temperate Disturbance (NTD) developed, and we were able to identify its nature and origin. In this report, we summarise the features of the N.Temperate domain and especially the NTD throughout its lifetime from 2009 to early 2012.
