Details:
After fairly low meteor activity in the evening 12/13th of Dec (as far as I can judge), several bright meteors streaked across the sky in the early morning hours. Attached is a photo of the brightest meteor I saw. With the Moon out of the way the clear winter sky was amazing to behold and here in the north the Geminids were accompanied by pulsating auroras. It is all set for a meteor feast tonight!
