Ben Nathaniel, an amateur astronomer from the Givatayim Observatory also observed the Draconids outburst of last week. Like Omri Katz, he observed from Ramat Gan, in the heart of the Tel Aviv metropoline under heavily light polluted sky and partly cloudy as well (although from a different neighborhood - they were not together). From 2030 UT until 2155 UT, he saw approximately 30 meteors. At approximately 22:35 he saw a small outburst of 10 meteors in just a few seconds. He estimates the average magnitude of all the meteors at 2-3 with a few zero magnitude meteors. Again like Omri's observation, this was performed following the email of Bill Cooke which I (Shy Halatzi) forwarded to our meteors division email list.


Best regards,Shy Halatzi
