Between 04:50 and 05:40 I saw two bright leonids and two fainter. It sure was a beautiful night though. Sorry I didn't set up the scope, I was expecting quite a few more meteors so I hadn't bothered. Though, I did bring out the 15x70s and M42 looked superb, and Saturn was sitting nice and high at about 45 deg well worth imaging. Cloud did start thickening up though so i gave up and went back to bed.
This Leonids "storm" was a real non-event.

Clear Skies,
