(meteorobs) Leonids 2009 16-17 Nov UT UT night. Moderate activity?

[Francisco Ocaña]

Hi list

I want to add after analysing the data that the Leonids were clearly 
very bright. Amongst the recorded there were two fireballs with 
magnitude <6.  Any other European/African observers with similar (or 
opposite) results?

Thanks. Tonight it is cloudy :-(

 Best,

Francisco Ocaña
