Sadly, the only showers we're likely to see down this way over the next two weeks are the ones that consist of water falling through the atmosphere.

We had clear (ish) skies over the Upper South East last night, but nothing seen, although I did hit the sack at 10PM.

No chance tonight with total cloud cover.

I have been 'playing' on 6M MS (MSK144, 50230KHz, 15S T/R period) this morning with (maybe) expectations that there might be bigger signals than usual, or maybe longer burns than usual.  Sadly, there was little difference to a normal Sunday's signals, except that there was a significant lack of what we in VK4 call 'Southern-ers' active on the band. A single VK3, one VK7, and VK1DO/VK2DO, later joined by a mid-VK2 station.  Nothing amazing at all !  Maybe next time there is a significant meteor shower event...
