On Feb 12, a minor THEMIS conjunction, TH-C at 18RE in the tail, observed the first indication of reconnection Earthward of it. Substorm ~03:00-04:30UT Precursors/onset 03:00-04:00. PBI at 04:05UT TH-C saw tailward beams at 03:42UT Reconnection reached lobe field lines Poleward intensification at RANKin Inlet Substorm ~10:00-12:00UT Intensification at 10:50UT
