Leonid Meteor Shower Tonight/ Tomorrow Morning

Is anyone going to watch it? The moon is in the new moon phase, so it should be a really good time to see meteors. It'll be during the early hours of the morning of November 17th.

According to this site we'll see 20 to 30 meteors per hour, but in Asia, they'll see 200 to 300 Meteors per hour. I'll still check it out though.

We're supposed to get one months worth of rain in the next 2 days... so no, I wont be watching the meteor shower.

High Five for the Pineapple Express.

Like Combine said - won't be able to watch it, but I can update you on the massive floods and power outages that will likely occur as does every year.

Woke up at 4am. Checked GT. Ran outside. Cloudy.

4am and cloudy as ever out here. Rain is coming in for the rest of the week. That's November in Chitown for ya.

It was cloudy here too. So much for that.

I saw some nice meteors during the August shower. One was bright, large and lasted for 3 seconds.

Tonight I dreamed that I saw northern lights. It was so pretty, but I was stupid enough to worry about finding my camera to take pictures (while everybody else already did).

I saw some sweet rain and wind! =D
