Hi all meteor observers,

That time, I managed to observe on the right date ;-)
Due to clouds, I couldn't observe before 21h30 UT, but then I made
a 1h Teff observing session. Moon and low temperatures made the 
session not so comfortable.
Moreover, nearly no meteor was observed.
No meteor during the first half hour (21h40 - 22h10 UT).
A bright sporadic (-3) in Perseus region, and 2 Ursids fortunately
made the second hal hour a little bit more interesting.
But it doesn't seem that Ursid rates were unusually high.
It may be different in radio/telescopic observations ?

Clear skies and good luck to all !
Karl
