(meteorobs) Early Leonid 2009 Observations

[Leo S]

Hi Michael,

I'm going to try for the evening on the 17th, and hope to catch some 
grazers from the peaks before midnight. We may be better placed than the 
USA in that respect I think?

I'll be aiming to get my cameras going for about 8:45 UT, although the 
radiant is still a few degrees below the horizon at that time (on 
Exemoor), but I think grazers are still possible at this time, and I 
want to make sure I don't miss any!

The weather looks very uncertain for that night though. I would say aim 
for that evening, but if the weather looks bad, then go out earlier if 
that looks better.

Good luck and clear skies!
Leo
