(meteorobs) Storm rages over Xinglong China (GRALE)_
I am in on a short break: a very significant meteor
storm has just occured here, with activity of 10 per
minute ranging perhaps all the way up to 100 or 120
per minute for the entire period 16:45UT to 20:00UT.
During several brief "spikes", groups of from 2 to 5
meteors in one second were quite common.
I will go back out now to complete my watch through
dawn (my last recording session just lasted 6 hours
straight!) After that, I will immediately begin to
transcribe my 2.5 hours digital data and THREE 110
minute tapes worth of continuous recording... That
will take most of the morning I expect (X^*), but I
promise to have the data in before lunchtime here.
Clear skies all!
