For most common and legal-trade purposes, the fractional second difference between UTC and UT (GMT) is inconsequentially small.

This meteor bombardment began around 20 April and is expected to last until around 28 May; one ought to devote around an hour to watching, one of the linked articles advised. You see that the advice about when to look is inexact. So UT and UTC are interchangeable for the purposes of this discussion. Sorry for the confusion.
