(meteorobs) Meteor Hunt Of November 2/3, 2001
November 30, 2001
Greetings Meteor Enthusiasts!
No major activity was seen during my November 2/3
meteor observations. Only one, short, fuzzy meteor
was seen during the whole hunt which actually was only
a casual observation seen over two hours before the
start of my more official meteor hunt. Despite that,
I decided to include it to make the report somewhat
worthwhile!
