Hello,

Here are composite images of Orionid meteors during the nights 19/20
and 20/21 October:

The shower meteors were mostly faint, with no fireballs at all. ZHR
estimation (based on number of detected sporadics) is 20 for the night
19/20 and 15 for the night 20/21, which is close to expected values
for this year. However, in previous years the Orionid meteors were
much brighter in my impression.

Best regards, Mikhail
