In addition to what I posted earlier, here is the magnitude distributiuon:
DATE UT F LM Magn. Dist. 0 1 2 3 4 5
Feb. 6, 1997 07:23-08:23 .85 6.2 0 0 0 4 3 0
08:23-09:23 .80 6.2 0 0 0 2 1 2
Feb. 7, 1997 08:36-09:36 .66 5.8 0 0 1 1 1 0
09:36-10:36 .75 6.1 0 0 0 0 3 0
Feb. 8, 1997 08:37-09:37 1.0 6.3 0 0 0 1 1 0
09:37-10:37 1.0 6.4 0 0 1 0 0 1
Feb 9, 1997 08:25-09:25 .66 5.8 0 0 0 0 2 0
Note: As can be seen, the rates seemed to drop off after the 7th.
Two additional Xi Bootids were seen incidentally after I stopped
recording on Feb. 6th. I saw 26 meteors total from the Xi Boo area.
