(meteorobs) Perseids

[Paul Martsching]

If what I saw this morning is any indication, I highly recommend going out tomorrow morning to watch the Perseids in spite of the Moon light.  Not many fireballs, but plenty of negative magnitude Perseids.  Also several bright Kappa Cygnids.  I faced North and blocked the Moon with a black umbrella.  Because of the bright Moon light train durations were generally very brief.  Report later.

Hoping tonight will be as clear as last night.
