Meteor Shower

[Mystery57]

Does anyone know any details about a meteor shower due 22/23 April.

I saw reference to it on Facebook but there were no other details.

I'm told it's running till about the 26th peaking toward the end with up to 90 an hour, no other details though.

I was hoping to try another star trail that night to see how many I can capture. I wonder if it will work?

All a game of luck at the moment! if you can get out to somewhere with less light pollution and clear skies it will help! I'm out in the sticks in Salisbury which always helps, especially with the telescope, would never live in the city again!
