Re: (meteorobs) Observation from Oregon 2003 July 27



Observer: Wesley Stone (STOWE)
Location: Chiloquin, OR (42d 35m N, 121d 52m W)
Method: Counting: Watch/Tape recorder

I observed for one hour on the morning of July 28 before clouds suddenly appeared and shut me down. Activity was fairly sparse with only 19 meteors.  The highlight was a white -4 Alpha Capricornid.

On July 29, I got 1.5 hours in.  Activity was much better (47 meteors), though a bit faint.  South Delta Aquarids were impressive with 14 meteors.

Brief summaries below.
