The main event is happened last night and is still going on.

I have over 120 screen shots with many showing multiple Meteor hits.

I cannot begin to estimate the actual number of hits I have recorded.

Here are a few of the larger ones.

They are still coming in at a rate of 2 to 3 a min.

I will put together a video of the entire collection after it has finished.

Well I went out last night hoping for a visual display and I gave up after an hour of cloud studying/dodging... it just got worse. I saw more the night before... a couple of years ago I saw forty plus... I know your radio system is impervious to clouds, but was it cloudy where you are graham, did you try and see some too?

Looks good Graham,

I'm sitting in (a very wet) valley in Wales and was really hoping for some clear skies, but all we got at night was cloud.

Looking forward to checking my detector when I get home tomorrow to see what it captured over the last few days.
