There appears to be an episode of enhanced meteor activity in progress
according to doppler radio observations at COAA (37 11N 08 36W).

Much higher than normal persistent trails are evident from around
1999-07-11 13:00UT to at least the present time (1999-07-11 13:45UT).

The doppler signals are fairly symmetrically distributed between positive
and negative doppler shifts which suggests a radiant (or at least the
resulting plasma) mostly close to the meridian (ca 8 hours RA).

Has anyone else noticed this?
