(meteorobs) Sept 9 Observations
-- [ From: Robert Lunsford * EMC.Ver #2.5.3 ] --
I watched from home this morning since I felt a bit too tired to drive
45 minutes to the observatory. I also had an early morning meeting at
work so the session was limited to two hours so that I could be alert
and not nod off during the meeting. Actually the skies were not all that
bad. I was hazy toward the horizons but LM's were in the 5.75 range high
in the sky. I counted a total of 10 meteors which included 1 member of
the September Perseids (DAU). All other meteors were sporadic. It was
also surprising quiet with hardy a buzz from any mosquitoes.
1000-1100 UT 0.97 5.77 4 SPO 4 TOTAL
1100-1200 UT 0.97 5.75 1 DAU 5 SPO 6 TOTAL
The sky was clear the entire session. I was facing east at an elevation
of 70 degrees.
Beginning Temperature/Relative Humidity: 72 F (22 C) 74%
Ending Temperature/Relative Humidity: 71 (22 C) 85%
