Annual Leonid meteor shower

Early tomorrow morning is the peak time for us in the eastern U.S.
This will be the last time to check out this amazingly beautiful wonder of nature for the next 30 years.
Check out http://www.space.com/leonids/ for more information.
They've got shower predictions for most U.S. cities.
Enjoy! smile
It's supposed to be cloudy here in Detroit sad, but hopefully we'll be able to see something.

Yeah, I think it's supposed to be from 3am til dawn here. Knowing Detroit though, we're bound to miss it. I'm actually tempted to go up to my parents' place in Port Huron where there isn't as much city light. Plus, they live right on Lake Huron so that allows for a full view of the sky. We'll see I guess.

I think it would be worth it, Tron. If you're really interested in seeing it. I heard on WWJ today that the next time we'll be able to see this many meteors is going to be in 2098! If you can get to Port Huron, go man! It's only an hour drive. smile
