Details from information submitted to the SPA Meteor Section from 2001 January and February are presented. The Quadrantid peak was not especially well-covered visually, although radio results suggested a main maximum roughly as expected at 12h+-1h UT on January 3, with a lesser, secondary, maximum around January 3 from 21h to 23h UT (lambda (eq. J2000.0)= 283.56 - 283.64 deg). Several fireballs between January 25-27, coincident in date with enhancements in the radio data from January 24-26, lambda= 304 - 306 deg, may have been associated with the possible January Coma Berenicid minor shower [1]. February 8 and 9 produced several fireball events over the UK, two of which were seen from more than two sites. The best of these was a magnitude -6 or brighter fireball at 19h42m UT on February 8-9 reported from 25 locations.
