(meteorobs) Quadrantids 2011 January 3/4 from Slovenia

[Pierre Martin]

Well done, Javor!  It looks like you were well positioned to see the  
Quads peak!

Here in Eastern Ontario, cloudiness and snow moved in early and took  
away any hopes I had to observe during the pre-dawn hours.

Clear skies!
