Lollypop 0 Posted June 25, 2003 About 2 or 3 years ago the earth was going through a meteor shower and you had to be in the southern hemisphere to get the best view. I got up at 2-30 and took a chair outside to watch. And I wasn't disappointed, it was a marvelous light show. When it was over I was too excited to go back to bed and sleep. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yillara Skye 1 Posted June 30, 2003 Oh, sorry. :lol: Perhaps tonight it will clear up for you. Dont get upset Alterego... I am thrilled that people are seeing good ones, I mean this shower has not been very active. And you got to see a good meteor! As for clearing up....if you check out the link on the Hurricane season thread that I started. us in the south east will be under clouds for a few days..TS Bill. Oh, well.. I will get to catch other showers. And of course, I saw over 200 in one hour the night of the last Lyrid Storm(including several fireballs). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
