(meteorobs) Too Late for PAUs?

[meteoreye at comcast.net]

If it was a long distance meteor from near Formahaut, it was not a PAU, sounds like too long for a meteor that close to the radiant.
The radiant is about 8 degrees east of Formalhaut now.
A meteor must be shorter than the distance from the radiant to the start of the meteor to be included as a shower member.
This was the last day of shower activity listed by the IMO/AMS, supported by recent observations
Gary's list is of a more historical nature, a fine resource for research.
