Yes, 19/20 looks more promising for us than tonight does.  This year reminds 
me very much of my 1999 Leonid storm observing disaster experience from 
Sicily, when so many of us in the entire Mediterranean Sea area were wiped 
out by a similar cold front coming down from the continent.  That front took 
48 hours to clear out afterwards, this one may take less than twelve.  
Hopefully, there will be a few Leonids leftover for us, huh?     Best 
regards, Paolo (my Sicilian alter-ego) ;o)
