(meteorobs) Re: Bright Taurids

[Koen Miskotte]

Hi Pierre,
You mentioned that most activity came from the southern Taurids. Thats also 
my impression, especially the bright ones. The two bright ones captured with 
the 10D are also STA.
Sky is now clouded in Ermelo, The Netherlands, but the Dutch weather 
institute expect a clear night.
Good meteor hunting!
Koen
