(meteorobs) Perseids 8/15/15 - Mathias, WVa

[george]

                  Screech Owl Hill Observatory,  Mountain Meadows  
                           Mathias, West Virginia - August 15, 2015  

We had a fairly good night, but a bit on the hazy side.  The Perseids were
still putting on a good show, but with greatly reduced numbers as expected.
No “minus” magnitude meteors were seen, but the average Perseid was still 
a decent 2.1 magnitude.  The Kappa Cygnids were better than two nights 
ago, and the Antihelions were still strong as well.  The Screech Owls were 
active again during the second session.  The Milky Way was good, but not
spectacular as it was during the Perseid peak two nights ago.
