[Cheering472]

I am so happy for y'all that saw something! I am so sad for me...went outside before bed and realized there were too many trees, too much city light and maybe too much cloud cover. Then the dammmm door at my Daddy's house went all bat crazy on me and the latch got stuck. Tried to unstick it and all I got was hot and bit by skeeters!!! Had to use the deadbolt.

Poor Kitty, stooopid door.
I on the other hand fell asleep on the couch missing the whole thing Story of my life.

Being on an east-facing beach has its advantages.
My kid counted 41, including a few fireballs with streaky little tails.

That's great...and now you can share this story forever. My daughter and I have one night years ago that we still talk about.

Monday night I was in Grayton till 1:30 a.m. for a meeting and when I came out I saw huge ones with tales and lots of little streaking thin ones. It was wonderful! Ahhhhhhh

(Oct. 19) -- A junior version of the famous Perseid meteor shower is scheduled to reach its maximum before sunrise on Sunday morning, Oct. 21. This meteor display is known as the Orionids because the meteors seem to fan out from a region to the north of Orion's second brightest star, ruddy Betelgeuse.​

After peaking Sunday, activity will begin to slowly descend, dropping back to around five per hour around Oct. 26.​

The Orionid meteors seen falling this weekend are believed to result from the orbit of the famous Halley's Comet, shown above in a graphic.​
