Posting with the caveat that this is a POSSIBILITY not a certain event. As always, your interest in viewing this will be directly proportional to the chance you will have cloudy weather. (See the link for on line viewing)

That said, there is a map showing that the East Coast will have the best chance of viewing and a sky chart showing where to look. They predict about 11:50 p.m. November 21 Eastern time. (10:50 p.m. Central)

There are links in the story to two other sites that have additional information including the Dutch site that is predicting the possibility of this event.

Good luck and good viewing!

Meteors?

You want meteors?

I got meteors.

They don’t come cheap.

These are good meteors.

Prime.

But I only take cash.

Much lower meteor count than you can typically see in the Perseids every year.

My mother — who passed away earlier this year — saw a meteor storm as a young girl, probably in the 1920s, that presaged the Great Depression, as it turned out.

This was a true storm as she remembered it, with simultaneous bright meteors “all over” the sky. And the sky over Iowa was pretty dark at that time.
