The clouds parted some for a while but no meteors were seen over about half an hour about 2 AM.

The research aircraft left Ames (about 3 miles from our house) at 3:30 PM and flew to about 70 degrees N latitude, then turned around and came home. What a nice evening flight!

We were out in the middle of a blueberry patch on Friday night (it was a cold 27F) and saw a few shower members, but, were much more impressed by Comets Holmes and Tuttle. Both were quite nice. Mars and Saturn are also very good.
Last night (Sunday) I went out in my back yard (I live in the center of Savannah, GA) and got nice views of Holmes, Tuttle, Mars, the asteroid Ceres and M77, the active galaxy near by in Cetus. Considering I have more than 7 streetlights visible in my yard, it wasn’t bad viewing. It wasn’t near as cold either.

in 1490, when observers in China, Japan and Korea saw a comet following a path similar to that of the Quadrantids. Apparently a sudden event caused the dormant comet to flare up - like Comet Holmes in October 2007 - leaving behind a stream of debris... The 1490 event left behind at least one larger remnant, a near-Earth asteroid called 2003 EH1.
Thanks Blam!
