(meteorobs) Meteor Observations From Northern Nevada on April 10, 2007

[Robin Gray]

April 9 was overcast, very windy with a lot of
airborne dust. When evening came the clouds cleared
away so I decided to go out and try some meteor
observing. Evidently the airborne dust remained as
limiting magnitudes were considerably poorer than
usual. Most of the meteors I saw were faint but I saw
one magnitude 0 pale green sporadic with a 20 degree
train behind it.
