   Well I finally got a half way decent night to get some meteor data this
past Saturday morning from Greenbelt, Maryland. The LM wasn't too good due
to the light pollution, but was good for here. Below is a brief list of my
data. Although there were few Perseids, they were generally bright ones. In
two hours two of -1, and 4 were 0 magnitude. The best one though was a very
nice -3 alpha Capricornid that had a beautiful yellow orange core surrounded
by a creamy yellow halo. Five of the thirteen Perseids seen left a train.

 Time (UT) LM   Teff    F   SDA   KCG   ACP  PER   SPO
 7:00-8:00 5.1  0.90  1.00   1     0     0    7     5
 8:00-9:00 5.2  1.00  1.00   0     0     2    6     2

One possible Xi Perseid was plotted, but it may have been a sporadic.
