(meteorobs) Observations July 28/29 from Oregon

[Wes Stone]

Trying again with new address. Third time's a charm?

I got out for another two hours this morning. Smoky skies in the evening 
were discouraging, but by morning the skies were OK. Still a lot of crud 
near the horizon. Meteor rates were decent, with the South Delta Aquarids 
producing 9 per hour. Most of the meteors were faint, but there was a -3 
sporadic and a very impressive slow -2 Alpha Capricornid that left an 
interrupted train. Perseids were also active with 9 total members including 
one of magnitude -1.
