For a change, much of the UK had clear skies during the nights of Apr 21-22
and 22-23.

I observed from Leek (Lat 53 06 N, Long 02 04 W):

April 21-22:  23:37-00:37 UT (LM 5.4)
4 Lyrids and 5 sporadics

April 22-23:  21:59-00:09 UT (LM 5.2-5.3)
10 Lyrids and 5 sporadics

There seem to have been a good number of bright meteors this year. My best
was a mag -3 Lyrid seen at 23:02 UT on April 22.

A summary of observations reported so far to the SPA Meteor Section can be
