The Perseids of 1994 continued the recent pattern of a double maximum, with a novel, higher activity peak occurring at 11h UT on the morning of August 12 at solar longitude(2000.0) =3D 135.59 deg, some 10-12 hours ahead of the expected regular maximum. The novel peak occurred over the western United States, whilst the bulk of BAA observers, in western Europe, were able to follow activity around the regular maximum, which occurred in the morning hours of August 12-13. Corrected Perseid Zenithal Hourly Rates in the two peaks reached levels in excess of 200, and up to 80, respectively -- much as in 1993.
