Meteor Shower From Comet Boattini? - Late Aug

[martinastro]

From BAA....

Cedric Bemer points out the possibility of a meteor shower from the comet. The miss distance for the orbits is 0.0178 AU and the earth passes this point 27.5 days later. Maximum is likely on August 21.9 or 27.6, with a radiant of 168 -14.

I do not understand these words: "Maximum is likely on August 21.9 or 27.6"
They mean two possible nights - 21/22 and 27/28 ?
Or they mean a period between Aug. 22-27 ?

I don't understand it either Roman, the information is not very specific. I'm hoping for some further updates soon.

Martin, have you seen anywhere else any info about the W1 Boattini meteor shower?

Some interesting facts about its radiant. 168;-14 = RA 11h10m; DEC -14deg, so it must be to the W of delta Crt. But it is too close to the Sun!
(Aug.22-27) delta Crt rises about 8h ; sets about 18h
How I didn't notice this before?! If I'm not wrong, it must be only daylight visible.  

However I will try to observe meteors on several nights between Aug.20-30. (Perseids, Cygnids, alpha-Aurigids).

Not much good if it's in daylight is it  ....still no updates on this so far.
