We had partly couudy to mostly cloudy conditions all
night. However, I was lucky to catch a few sucker
holes and get two hours of possible useful data. The
ELY and ANT were active, and the SPO count was good.
The second hour with better, but only fair conditions.
The best meteors was a lovely 0 magnitude blue-green
colored SPO seen at 6:33 UT, and a nice 1st magnitiude
yellow-orange Alpha Scorpid (ANT) seen at 5:10 UT.
