Re: (meteorobs) Variable magnitude meteor-how to report

<< OK Mark,George,Jurgen,Bob...
 Just to make sure Kevin and I are doing this right....
 Last night we observed a very nice meteor which was dim yellow for most of 
 it's path, but had two very bright blue white flashes near the end.
 Am I correct that the magnitude reported should be that of the peak 
 brightness?
 It was really quite spectacular BTW.
 
 Thanx, Wayne

Wayne,
I record the magnitude of the brightest segment.
