Pretty much the same in France south of the Loire valley. Thick cloud
cover all through the night. I was all prepared to do some video
recording (Watec 120N) with a diffrection grating in front of the lens
 in the vain hope of catching a bright Quadrantid.  No such luck!

Regards
Steve 
Valencin (near Lyon)
