Hi Karl,

The same story overhere..the night 20-21 October was filled with 
severe thunderstorms, gales and rain fall...incredible ! It looked 
as we were still in the middle of summer ! Finally, I found clear 
skies after 4.30 UT..saw one single Orionid, a beautiful Northern 
Taurid and 2 sporadics. I hope to catch more Orionid and Taurid 
activity during the following nights..
PS Still have one report in progress from 12-13/10. 

Clear skies,

Michel. 
Belgium.

and conditions not so favorable, I just spotted 2 meteors, none of 
them was an Orionid, before the sky covered again.
