(meteorobs) Observation August 17/18, 2004 from Slovenia

[Javor Kac]

I was too exhausted to last for the whole night, but still managed 
3.8 hours of observations this night.
I saw no Perseids in the evening hour, but they became alive in the 
two morning periods. Kappa Cygnids were also active, but less 
than I expected.

The brightest meteor of the night was a -3 magnitude Perseid with 
a 8-second train at the Pegasus/Cygnus border.

Clear skies,
Javor
