I am located approx 6 km north of the center of the path. The transit of asteroid Leona in front of Betelgeuse resulted in a partial occultation of the star.
10" newtonian on alt-az mount, ZWO asi224mc at 250 fps (here reduced to 60 fps). The peak of the occultation happened exactly at 02:14:00 local time, just as predicted.
