Just seen a couple of really bright meteors
-
Went out for swift ciggie and was surprised to see a couple of very bright meteors whizz across the sky. Further googling revealed the fact that the Capricornids are hitting us this evening. Might be worth a visit to the great outdoors for those of you interested in such things.

It seems that they are in fact the Alpha Capricornids and they are due to peak at 2 mins to midnight tomorrow. The Capricornids arrive in October and peak around the 10th.

Excellent. Will have to see if the lady friend would like to go camping tonight to watch the show. Nice timing too... I'm already taking tomorrow off from work.

Wouldn't you know - it's finally cloudy tonight here. It's still 100+, but it's cloudy nonetheless... :sigh:
