Taurids

The Taurid meteors reach their long gradual peak of activity on 3-4 November. Rates are never very high (maybe 10-15 per hour at best), but there are a fair number of long slow bright meteors and fireballs, which are good targets for photography. There is a double radiant, in the general direction of the Pleiades.
