Remarks

Fifth night of the meteor camp and the most cloudiest night of the whole week. After the first interval; clouds moved in from the west with rainfall during the early morning hours. During this night, I observed meteors from an other place in the Provence, together with DMS observer Koen Miskotte. Elas, clouds decided for us we should get some sleep...Also on July 28th,  the French Provence was covered with severe thunderstorms. 


Kind regards, 

Michel.
