Mathias, West Virginia - August, 10, 2015
Last night it was mostly cloudy, but during a couple of sucker holes from 12:15 to
1:15 am I saw about a dozen Perseids, Two were especially nice with long duration
persistent trains that were -1 and 0 magnitude. Unfortunately I wasn’t recording data.
After I ran back into the cabin to get my tape recorder, watch, and red flashlight, I
came back out and was greeted with a incoming massive overcast of clouds. Oh well,
at least I saw some nice Perseids before the overcast. I am eagerly awaiting the max
on Wed./Thurs. night.
Starry Skies,
