(meteorobs) Re: Early Perseids
I would tend to agree with Malcolm. The Perseids have been shown to
possess a stable orbit free of the many perturbations that affect
many other showers. Reported Perseid meteors seen more than 3 weeks
before or after the date of maximum activity should be highly suspect
and are most likely sporadics that by chance have lined up with the
predicted position of the Perseid radiant.
