(meteorobs) Weather prospects for Adelaide, S Aust.
Just been out for a morning of meteor hunting, Just testing myself ready for
the up coming week. I observed from 1600 UT to 1730UT, with a couple of
breaks inbetween. Cloud was a big problem right upto 1645UT when it started
to clear up a bit.
I did see 1 Leonid, 1 Taurid and 2 Sparodic meteors in that time along with
11 Satellites. Not to bad for a test run.
Upcoming forecast looks a little dim for Saturday viewing with High cloud
moving in on Friday and a passing shower on Saturday, but other than that
doesn't look too bad.
Forecasts from the Bureau of Meteorology.
