Gosh, I didn't realise it would be visible up there even. Obviously a good, clear horizon helped. But no amount of clear horizon would've helped me-
I didn't bother looking as it was way too low for me.
This years shower was to be a good one too. I'm glad you got to see some, great report and sounds an enjoyable night.
Have you heard about the new shower added to the 2014 list?
Northerners get lucky again! Hourly rate of 100-1,000
on May 24th.
The new addition is called The "Camelopardalids" thanks to periodic comet 209P/LINEAR.
