Hello!

I have just finished my meteor observation (23:30pm , 21:30 UT) and i have recorded only (?) 3 Ursids in 2 hours. Judging by the conditions: moonlight, light pollution => lm=+4.0, radiant not very high, low ZHR, maybe this couln't be bad..

Anyway at least one of them worth observing. A -4 Ursid which crossed half the sky !! (to be honest from Capella - alpha Auriga- up to Rigel in Orion!). Just ..amazing!

I hope others were/will be more lucky!

Clear skies with many meteors & Merry Christmas !

Grigoris
