Title: Leonid meteors - incoming...(to a sky near you)
Post by: blobrana on November 17, 2004, 04:47:10 AM

Just a reminder,
on Nov. 18-19th,  sky watchers somewhere will see a dazzling storm of Leonid meteors. (http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/blobrana/news/leonids.html)

Looks like it`ll be cloudy over the UK though...(again)

The only visible thing tommorow night will be clouds and raindrops (or even hailstones) I think :-/.

Last night for us it was funnel clouds and a tornado. That kind of excitement I can do without! :-o

Hardly dazzling tho'. Sixty per hour if conditions are right, according to SpaceWeather.com (http://www.spaceweather.com).

Cheers,
