The first observations of mean winds and the amplitude and phases of the tidal components measured with a meteor wind radar located at Trivandrum (8.5 deg N, 77 deg E) during five consecutive days of counter electrojet events identified in the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field from January 27-31, 1987 are described. The mean zonal winds in the altitude region of 90-105 km are in general westward during counter electrojet days and eastward during no-counter electrojet days. The amplitudes and phases of the tidal components on the counter electrojet days are found to be substantially different from those on the no-counter electrojet days.
