(meteorobs) Ursid outburst in progress - from Peter Brown

[Lacorne Jens]

Hello Peter,  Bill,  and all !

I just return from an observation here in south-eastern France, started at
21h30 UT and ended at 01h15  UT. I saw a good activity from the ursids : a
dozen per hour under a sky with LM 5-5,5 and a low  radiant. I think we can
have a ZHR nearly 50 in this conditions .
Reports come later.
I hope that other observers can confirm this outburst.

Clear skies !

>> FYI, looks like there is a fairly strong Ursid outburst in progress –
started in the last hour or so. Not sure of the ZHR/rates but looks to be
quite strong – many tens per hour at least.
