The foreceast was that Earth would pass through a dense stream of particles last night between 1 and 2am PDT. Initial reports looks like they were pretty close (actually hit about 1:30 to 2:30am). We are getting better at this meteor shower prediction business.
Totally clouded out here. Summer rainy season in full swing.
I went out at 11:15 and immediately spotted one crossing the sky. Stayed out for a few more minutes but didn't see anything else. Come to think of it, I did see one Tuesday night as well.
I'm up but not nearly awake enough to stand still that early in the dark without falling back asleep! I will try to look tomorrow morning but I'm not that good at memory stuff at that hour :(
Channel 6 said that last night was amazing. Tonight will not be as good, but still visible.

Between 1 and 5 AM? That's SER/Lizardmom time. I'm snoring. But, just in case, where in the sky? Anywhere? Everywhere?
ReplyDeleteNortheast is the best place to look as that is where Perseus rises.
ReplyDeleteThe news just said after 11 pm. I may not make it....
ReplyDeleteWell it's 4:45, I better hurry up and look.......
ReplyDeleteI went out at 11:15, stood around for a bit and said, OMG, I have to be up at 5:30 tomorrow morning. Anyone see anything?
ReplyDeleteI got outside about 5:03 (looked at my cell phone) and watched for about 20 minutes...didn’t see a thing. It may have been too late.
ReplyDeleteThere were a lot of clouds over the lake. Well maybe tomorrow.... :(
