Unfortunately it was overcast here during this month’s meteor shower.

I only saw ONE meteor during the Perseids this week, from around 11 pm Sunday to 1 AM Monday. It was a nice one, and even left a faint trace for a couple of seconds.

I would have stayed out longer, but too many mosquitos and scary noises. I live deep in rural Alabama. Might have been a wooly booger or something.
