A bright meteor caught by UKMON cameras on the 20th of November<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Regular Showers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were no member reports for the Draconids, Orionids, Leonids or Taurids this year. Even the video networks had a quiet time with only 1800 Orionids and 520 Leonids being recorded by the UK Meteor Network over the entire country. The peaks of both showers were not blessed with good weather though. The Northern and Southern Taurids were also relatively quiet with only 800 or so meteors detected by the camera network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fireballs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A number of non-members reported a fireball at 19:58 on the 26th<\/sup> of November.  Observers in the North West saw it to their south with at least seven reports made via the fireball reporting form, though the IMO reports incorrectly place it about 100 miles further north than the video evidence! This highlights an issue with visual observations. The IMO report is here https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/2z7ny6mb<\/a> and the video data are here https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/mv34n645<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another bright event was reported over East Anglia on the 15th<\/sup> of November, at about 18:11. This was reported by 58 people, two of them SPA members. Unfortunately, no photographic matches have been found due to inclement weather. The lowest point was over the sea east of Aldeburgh. The IMO report is available here https:\/\/ukmon.imo.net\/imo_view\/event\/2024\/6948<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
