I went out on the morning of December 5 to observe
meteors. Conditions were not ideal - thin clouds
depressed the limiting magnitude by about .5 over what
it normally is here. But I went ahead anyway and saw a
considerable number of meteors, including several
bright ones. This included a beautiful Puppid-Velid
that rose almost vertically and left a long train
behind it. The following is a summary of what I saw:
