            JUNE BOOTID Activity 1999

Despite the strong interference with the Full Moon in the end of
June, some observers tried to monitor the activity of the June
Bootids, mostly in the night June 27-28. The unexpected outburst 
of the shower with maximum ZHRs possibly above 200 last year made
many observers curious to see what would happen in 1999.

No outburst of June Bootid activity was observed in 1999. Regular
observations reported so far are listed in short below:

-------------------------------------------------------------

More informal reports habe been received from Frank Enzlein,
Jurgen Rendtel, and Nikolai Wunsche all indicating non-existent 
June Bootid activity. Note that not all geographical longitudes
are covered by these observations; a short peak may be possible,
though it is very unlikely given the broad activity profiles of
past outbursts.
