(meteorobs) Leonids Observation in 1998



Hi all,

I has just returned home.  I could not see meteor storm, but I saw the
Leonids about HR=50 on Nov.17 and HR=15 on Nov.18.  I could see a bright
fireball about Mag -8.
When I returned home, I was surprised that there had been about 500
mails into my mailbox.  I cried "Oh mail storm!"
