The Leonid meteor shower will be at it's peak tonight. If you have a clear night, you may see quite a few "shooting stars", especially later on (probably at a peak after midnight).
Just thought you might be interested !

Plocket
There may be some before midnight, it's just that they'll be at a peak after midnight I believe.

Unfortunately Snowy there were no sausages on view last night. Did you see any stars ? Sadly, when I went outside about 11pm it was really cloudy here so I didn't get to see anything There may be some "shooting stars" over the next few nights as well, if you're lucky ! FA x

Oh wow, any idea which direction to look? S x UP........... FA x ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D I was at work last night and I popped on here quickly to catch up and came across this thread. I had to explain to my crew-mate why I was laughing and so for the rest of the night we were on the look out for shooting stars. At 5.30 this morning we were taking a patient into the ambulance and Simon had got bored with not seeing any and said as I was bending over " 'ere I may not have seen any shooting stars but I've got a great view of Uranus" Well, that was it! We turned into the most unprofessional people ever and were completely cracked up. I'm so glad it was my turn to drive. Thanks Andy! ;D
