Unfortunately we may just catch the tail end of the eclipse here (you lucky dogs in the states) but I'm geared up for the Geminids!

I haven't seen or heard any reports on any Geminid sightings so guess it was a wash out this year. We had clear skies for the entire time but I only saw one on the following Tuesday. :roll: Hopefully the upcoming lunar eclipse with provide a better show.

I was out around 5am Tuesday morning 12/14 and saw about 6 meteors in 15 minutes. Temperature was around 6° so I didn't stay out too long. ;)
