(meteorobs) Geminid Obs. Dec. 14 - Mathias, WV

[Bruce McCurdy]

Here in central Alberta we've had white, wintry skies for a week. Tonight's
forecast is promising and I hope to view some post-peak GEMs from the dark
site.

                Screech Owl Hill Observatory,  Mountain Meadows  
                      Mathias, West Virginia - December 14, 2015  

I saw about 50 meteors, including 40 Geminids, 2 MONs, 2 ANTs, 1 LMI, and 6
SPOs last night under mostly cloudy skies.  Sky conditions were too variable
and poor for any scientific report, but a few very nice meteors, including a
-3 and -2 GEMs were seen.  The average GEM was about 1st magnitude, but the
LM was only 4th with 60% variable cloudiness from 5:30-8:00 UT.

Starry Skies,
GWG
