(meteorobs) Perseids Still Strong

[Bertunit at aol.com]

Perseids made up for their POOR Aug 11/12 showing last nite. 
 
Rates for me were TRIPLE the previous night. Report to follow, 3 full  
hours.
 
I had 3 -2's and several other 0 & -1 Perseids.  A BIG majority  were 
orange or reddish-or, with a 
few blue ones in the mix.  While repositioning for the 3rd hr. to face  S 
from NE I missed the -5
except for the 10 sec. train through the Aquarius water jar. Figures.
 
I have to think maximum was much closer to 12/13 Aug. than the previous  
night myself.
 
GOOD SHOW!!!
