Hi all,
Quick report only... I just got home from a VERY successful night!
Had a clear sky for several hours until 6am local time.
It looks like the stronger than usual Orionid rates continued from
what was reported yesterday. I haven't listened to the tape yet but
I'm pretty sure that this is the best Orionid return I've ever seen.
Rates seemed to be consistently 30 or more /hr during the hours
before dawn. Quite a few bright meteors seen and possibly
photographed too.
More complete report later... Now I'm pooped out and heading to bed.
