Dear meteor friends,

Just to note that we have updated the Leonid webpage at Armagh Observatory
with predictions for 2009 by David Asher:

http://www.arm.ac.uk/leonid/

David's predictions essentially confirm those of Mikhail Maslov, Jeremie
Vaubaillon, Esko Lyytinen ...

Obviously it is very important to test these predictions with observations.
However, it would be even more interesting if we manage to find an outburst
that was NOT predicted !  Hence, observations at ANY moment throughout next
week would be very valuable. An automatically updated Leonid ZHR graph is
available on the IMO site (but still empty now).

Clear skies!
Geert
