Just a quick summary for now. This morning in 70 minutes Teff
I saw only 13 LEO and 8 others. However, most of them (8 LEO,
5 others) were in the last 20 minutes Teff (between 11:18 and
11:41 Nov 18 UTC). Best one was a -4 LEO that made me jump
and say "Whoa!" Its persistent train lasted 30 to 40 seconds,
just south of Coma Berenices. I was in the country about 40
miles (64 km) east of my place. LM was at least +5.5 (faintest
star) if not somewhat better. Weather was very pretty. I had
expected to see more "others". More details later. Plan to
watch tonight.
