(meteorobs) Sept 10 Observations



-- [ From: Robert Lunsford * EMC.Ver #2.5.1 ] --

I had the pleasure to observe with George Zay and Ron Rennie this
morning. We had a 5 hour watch under clear skies that produced 51
meteors. 5 meteors were plotted from a radiant near Gary Kronk's
Triangulid position. Only 1 was seen from Gliba's Arietid radiant.
Magnitudes of the Triangulids were 2,4,3,4, and 2. Velocity in degrees
per second were 6,8,13,8, and 8.  3 slow members of the Southern Piscids
were seen. The most active shower of the session was the Delta Aurigids
with 9 shower members being seen tonight. The thin crescent moon was a
nice sight as it rose just as we were calling it quits at 5:30am.
