(meteorobs) RE: 2004 June Bootids

[Pierre Martin]

Thanks for the update and details!  It appears that for North America, 
the time to observe will be the morning of June 22/23, or very early on 
the following evening.  I will do what I can to watch around this date 
as weather permits.  It's nice that the Moon will interfere only 
slightly in the evening skies.

According to these results, will it still be worthwhile to observe for 
Pons Winneckids around the June 27, as well - even with brighter 
moonlight by then?

Thanks.

- Pierre
