(meteorobs) Negative on Gamma Delphinids from Oregon

[Paul Jones]

I totally echo Wes's report from here in north Florida.  I was out for the
exact period that he was and got almost the exact same results!   I had
about seven sporadics during the 45 minutes under skies that started mostly
hazy, but ended up improving to almost perfectly clear.  I will say that
one of the meteors - a swift +2 going north in Cygnus, was a fairly close
line up to the projected GDE radiant.  It looked more like a chance
sporadic line up to me more than it did a possible GDE though.   Hopefully,
someone somewhere saw something from them!

Clear skies, Paul in St. Augustine
