I now checked my plots from my observation earlier this week. Of 
the 18 meteors recorded, one was a probable Draconid and two 
were the Northern Taurids. All other meteors were sporadic.
The observing conditions were far from perfect: high humidity 
resulted in poor transparency, and the rising Moon later in the 
session did not help either. Nonetheless, it was good to be under 
the stars again.

Clear skies!
