all coordinates in mm from the lower left corner of the map
velocity scale:
1 - very slow; 2 - slow; 3 - medium; 4 - fast; 5 - very fast
* slight possibility that this is a Virginid

Comments: Nothing to say really, it's getting a little warmer
again, but after all meteor activity is still on its spring
level - which means very little to observe. Fortunately this
was quite a brilliant night, so there's no reason to complain.

Please note: d = degrees, all times in UT
