North of Dallas - suburban setting. Saw about 50 between 4:30 and 5:30 CST. The high haze, moon, and city lights didn't help. It was overcast here for every other shower this year, so this one was great.

Northast Texas--- 4:30am - 5:45am --- 214 'definites' & almost as many 'maybes' -- culminated by a spectacular pass of the ISS. Set up on an oil well pad 1/2 mi from nearest road with a big pine blocking the moon.
Lots of short ones -- inside the 'sickle' of Leo. Saw one burst of 6 near head-ons through 7X50 binocs focused right on the radiant point.
