(meteorobs) Quadrantids 2011 January 3/4 from Slovenia

[Koen Miskotte]

Hello Javor,
In the Netherlands and Belgium most observers were clouded out...
Most of them have seen nothing.
There was a short period of clear weather at my location.
During 25 minutes I saw 13 Quadrantids (Lm 5.8 and 10% obstruction).;
Good to hear you and other observers have seen the Quadrantids al full 
strength.
Last time we had good weather in the Benelux during the Quadrantid maximum 
was in 2009.
Regards, Koen

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!
