Meteor Shower Tonight

It's supposed to start around 11:45pm tonight. Look at East and it should last about 2 hours. My family and I are going to check it out. Post here if you saw one.

 

Thanks for posting the time. My son has been going nuts trying to find out what time it starts

 

I only saw ONE, yes - just ONE. So I went to bed a little after 1:30 am.

 

I hate that I missed it ... I love sky stuff. Apparently, the Leonid Meteor shower was very strongly visible in Europe ... shoulda gone over THERE for the evening!! :wink:

 

Missed it, but sounds like there wasn't much to watch this time!

 

Yeah, true. People out West missed it, too. Guess next time would be better - I hope.

 

We were outside until after 1:30 and we saw several, but not very many all at one time. My daughter tried to get up around 4 in hopes of seeing more, but all she managed to do was turn the alarm clock off and go back to sleep. Heck, I took a tylenol pm due to major head ache and back hurting and slept throught the rest of it too! But it was fun watching the kids see the ones they saw. We sat outside and drank hot chocolate and watched the sky.
