(meteorobs) Observation Aug. 12/13 98



Have not decoded anything yet, but just reporting a very
successful meteor observation for August 12/13. I observed
almost the whole night at my dark sky, south-east location site. 
It was clear from dusk until about 3:00 local EDT.

Very good activity, especially in the late evening before the
moon got too high and bright. Some fine meteors were seen including 
a bright -4 Perseid with a 10 second train! Overall, the rates appeared
better than 11/12.

I'll report back with more details when the tape for both nights is 
decoded (soon!).
