(meteorobs) (LINMI) Leonids from Hawaii - So Disgusting :(



This turned out one of my worst decisions I ever made. I put off some important work to fly to Mauna Loa on the big Island in anticipation of the last great "Leonid Storm" of our lifetime. ZHR's of 5000 at 1030UT, eh? - Saw just 46 of them in 2.5 hours, about twice the background rate. Many were faint and unimpressive too. Rather than waste my time any lengthy counting, I got 2 hours of shuteye off and on, so I wouldn't be totally wasted on Tuesday.

Whats the value of all these complex predictions if they are totally wrong! This is likely the last meteor report I feel like doing ...
