I observed for about 3 hrs. from 1-4 a.m. central under pretty dark
skies near Pleasant Hill, MO. I did not keep an accurate count, but I
would guess I saw 20-24 in that time. Nice night, most were faint, a
few left small trails. Ironically, the nicest one observed was not a
Leonid. I kept the scope inside and used my 15x60 Pentax instead.
Excellent night, all it needed was more Leonids. I'm surprised by the
lack of posts this year. Come on Easy Coasters, where are the
reports. Clouded out??? Somebody must have gone out.

I was not able to be awake last night and watch the Leonid shower. And I
havent read on here how it was.
I am curious, was it very good at all here in the US.

Thank You
