A study using archive IUE data of time-varying mass loss has been carried out for a sample of 12 supergiants in the spectral range B5-B9. Additionally dedicated IUE velocity-time observations of discrete absorption components (DAC) in the UV resonance lines have been made for one of the stars (Beta Ori), while optical data obtained for this star shows time variability in the H-alpha profile. Ions in which mass-loss features occur are unambiguously identified by comparing spectra of the stars at different mass loss episodes.
