Hey Mike, Bill, Anne, anyone: is the time in A to Z local or UT? 


Hello All,

According to the entry for Yafa in the Met.Bull. 86, MAPS 37-7, July 2002,
the date of fall is 14:45 GMT. This would correspond to 16:45 hrs for Yafa
(Date: July 15).

11:36 GMT for Magadan would correspond to 22:36 hrs there (Date: July 16).
So the time difference would be 29 hours + 51 minutes ... if I didn't blunder :-)


Best wishes,

Bernd
