Reason for an early morning soak Thursday

wm,
Thank you, thank you, thank you......I would have missed it! Believe me, I'll be soaking tomorrow morning! Could the 5 I saw yesterday be a part of Halley's? I'm betting yes........

AWWW DOODOO! Same here.

I was really looking forward to this. Went and looked on The Weather Network's page and cloudy all day tomorrow in Ottawa.

This morning's display was worth the price of admission. Got in the tub at 4:45 under crystal clear skies and enjoyed the next 1.5 hrs. watching 20 meteors that were "definites" and about 10 more that were in the "too fast/too far/too faint...I think I saw..." category. The best one (#3) struck a 20-25 degree arc right through Orion leaving a 2 sec. trail! I hope others had clear skies and warm tubs.........
Oh, and once again, thanks to wmccall.......

Oh well...

I was awake then, looked out side to cloudy skies, tried to get back to sleep. Glad someone got a good show.
