Update: 26 more Geminids observed from 9:05 until 9:21 U.T. (My
break was longer than expected;-) The moon was up, but not overly
bothersome. Clouds were more of a problem. The clouds were thicker
in some areas and thinner in others, but seemed to be present
everywhere.

Over all, this was a good night for bright, slow moving meteors!
