Although the peak of the Leonid meteor shower is still 2 weeks away, CAMS-Florida captured a bright one last night, at magnitude -2.9. Contributing sites were CAMS 233 (Florida Institute of Technology) and CAMS 5004 (Gainesville).
Date & Time were 5 Nov 09:38:02 UT.
UFOOrbit initially failed to identify it as a Leonid. However, inspection of the radiant plot and CSV file show that the radiant was very close to the predicted position, with orbital parameters that match what would be expected of a Leonid meteor.
