(meteorobs) Perseids

[Michel Vandeputte]

I can not confirm this 'enjoyable PER activity' between the period 01.12 - 03.12 UT. No fireballs and not so many negative magnitudes... 
30 Perseids during this 2 hour watch... 

Long trains and good luck for the main maximum!

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.
