Title: Anybody gonna watch meteor shower tonite? (Fri and Sat) Post by: leggo of my ego on May 23, 2014, 06:59:49 PM Sky is Clear here in the Hoosier state. Got a patio outside the walk-out basement door facing NNW - they say there could be +1000 per hour
from this debris trail. If you are in N.America check it out, don't think its visible in other locations. Happy watching! ;D Title: Re: Anybody gonna watch meteor shower tonite?

Woke up this morning and a cloud cover had moved in and it hasn't budged. :-[

Hope I don't miss too much though it's been kinda cloudy.... Not expecting much, most of the hyped up sh*t by astronomers tends to be sort of overhyped.

Nothing here, but I don't know if that means it was a bust or if there's just too much ambient light. I did meet an adorable black cat while I was outside so I'll consider this a win.

Weatherman forecasted clear skies for tonight all week long. Woke up this morning and a cloud cover had moved in and it hasn't budged. :-[ Was outside about 20mins looking to the N-NW and saw a few quick white streaks but then a big one came in on a shallow angle and burned blue and green before it burned out. Cool 8) Went inside and watched out the picture window a while longer but kept nodding off so I gave it up. It was worth it to see that one huge meteorite, biggest I have ever seen. To-nite its cloudy so I hope some of you others get better weather. |
