I just finished an occasionally clouded meteor watch, from 6:36 to 9:33 UT. My hopes of great rates were unjustifiably stirred up by two nearly simultaneous Leonids at 6:58. But, after that there were LONG periods of no Leonids and few other meteors. However, true to one prediction, shortly after 9:00, actually 9:03-9:33 UT, I saw several Leonids including two minus magnitude members. I was clouded out at 9:33 UT. I will post a more complete follow-up later.
Best of luck to observers elsewhere!
