Possible meteor storm tonight.
May 30, 2022 at 5:41 pm
It's predicted to be around Midnight CDT, but with 1,000 meteors per hour, I am going to tell Alexa to get me up:
A 'meteor storm' of 1,000 shooting stars per hour may light up the skies over North America this week

This one’s pretty iffy. It may be 1000 per hour, could be zilch.

People from New Zealand won’t be lucky. The meteor shower will peak while still daylight, and the radiant will be below the horizon.

I’m the luckiest man I know. Not sure what seeing or not seeing a meteor sprinkle has to do with luck, though.

That's very hurtful. You KNOW I've been shunned by the Leprechaun community.

Checked news reports, didn't see anything about a world-class meteoric fire storm/light show.
How was it?
