Hi All,

significant June Bootids activity was noticed during comet observing
session on June 24, 2010, between 00h00m UT and 01h06m UT.
During one hour of casual observing (about 30-40% time was spent
skygazing) under LM 6.0 sky, eight June Bootids were seen by Jure Atanackov
a couple of other observers and myself.
Their magnitude distribution was:
0(2) +1(2) +2(2) +3(2)
During this interval only two sporadic meteors were seen.

My meteor camera Orion1 detected 9 June Bootids and 8 sporadic meteors in
about 5 hours observing time in the night of June 23/24.

American observers should be alert for the possible prolonged activity. I
hope some of you will persist despite the bright Moon!

Clear skies!
Javor
