Dear colleagues,
The past night 16-17th Nov. the Spanish Photographic Meteor Network (SPMN) developed an intensive campaign from five stations of Valencia and Castellon provinces in Spain. Tonight we will continue with our multiple station work. Yesterday the activity was around 15 meteors by hour from Spain as you can see below in my preliminar data. The low activity allow me the use of IMO plotting method. The charts will be send next days Dr. Jenniskens (NASA/Ames).
In this moment we hope the storm under a blue sky. Tomorrow we will send opportunely our results to the IMO News list. The participating people in our SPMN project are: Joan Ma. Bullon, Juli Castellano, Angela del Castillo, Rodrigo Castillo, Alberto Castro-Tirado, Rafael Ferrando, José Gomez, Antonio Gutierrez, Carles Labordena, Carles Pineda, Rafael Ramirez, Julian Ruiz y Natatxa Sanchez.
