I recorded a somewhat better than average collection of Leonids this year, 
141 over November 16-19. There is a modest peak of activity on November 17, 
but only a little higher than the nights on either side. On the three 
strongest nights, I was recording about one mag -4 or brighter meteor every 
15 minutes. No really spectacular fireballs this year, though.
