A quick report before I've to hurry off to catch the train to work. This morning it was clear again, and I observed Superbird A in the dawn. I was looking a bit too much to the east, whwn suddenly I saw it flashing to the west then expected. It started with bright flashes mag 3,and in between mag 5 flashes; but the last were only mag 5.
