(meteorobs) October 22-23: Orionids on their way back...

[Koen Miskotte]

Hi Michel,
In the Netherlands we were not so lucky with the weather. The idea was to 
observe in the period 20-5 UT, but due to clouds and even some small 
rainshowers I  could only observe between 1:25 and 4:50 UT. I got the 
impression  during the first hour the Orionid activity was  bit enhanced. In 
that period I counted  6-8 bright Orionids between +1 and -2 besides the 
weak Orionids The last two hours Orionid activity returned to a normal 
level. But, I still have to listen to my digital voice recorder, this is 
only an impression I got in the field.
Best wishes, Koen
