(meteorobs) (admin fwd) Manhattan




From: Olmad@aol.com


Observed from a sixteen story rooftop on the upper west side in Manhattan. 
Limiting mag 3.5. Observed from 5.50 A. M. until 6.10 A.M. EST. Saw a total 
of @ 200 meteors ( all Leonids ). MANY fireballs abbove mag. 0. Frequently 
coming in simultaneous groups of up to five at once. Stunning variation in 
color( particularly orange and green for the brigter meteors. Sure wish I had 
a darker observation site, as the sky conditions were PERFECT discounting the 
sky pollution!
