(meteorobs) Anyone hearing high counts today?
Hi:
Just curious, I woke up at 0800 UT and turned the meteor radio on, I
began hearing quite a few meteors and below is what I have heard so
far. Just wondering if this is part of the Alpha Monocerotids shower?

Two left nice events, one at 1021 UT lasted 35 seconds, the other at
1025 UT lasted 15 seconds. Both were lound enough that I had to turn
my volume down!
