I hope mine shows something, I haven't seen a meteor on my Sandia in weeks!

Hi Bill,

I actually can pull more meteors out of my secondary video and see 
possible ETAs at

Times approximate:
1108:50
1111:59
1117:00
1123:30

When Sentinel cameras post their results later in the day maybe you will 
see further evidence of an outburst.
