Subject: (meteorobs) Leonid peak
from East GA
I agree that the North American peak
occured at around 10:42-45. I had my strongest rates at this time, equal
to if not slightly surpassing last year's best "minute."
I also completely agree
that this was not a bright display though I did have a few
nice fireballs including one -7 that had a 40 second train. The hours
leading up to the peak were quite slow, but the bursts during the peak were
great...sometimes six and seven meteors in less than 5 seconds!!! I
really need to thaw my toes and get some sleep, I'll try to get out my
report later today.
