Hey all you early birds.......

[BlondeOnaBusa]

Just in case you didn't know.......Keep your eyes open in the wee hours of the morning, just before the dawn and you will get a chance to see the Leonids Meteor Shower.

 

[BUBBA]

Thanks BoB. I love a good shower now and then! But it's not Saturday yet, and the Roids will be ablazing!
Just B/4 Dawn? What? we are not allowed to see them?

 

[captain]

I am going to try to set the camera up and grab a couple of shots...

Please do, I have no chance at seeing it otherwise....

For Tampa it's looking like the best viewing window is between 4:00AM (Moonset) and 5:32AM (Astronomical Twilight). Unfortunately there's supposed to be fog with about 70% sky cover from 4:00AM to 7:00AM.

it's raining now but i'll be out if it clears off by then...thanks for the heads up

 

[BlondeOnaBusa]

I had planned on getting up and watching it this morning but just couldn't get out of bed. Oh well, there will be another one on Dec. 13th (Geminids).


Capt'n, I hope you got some pictures to share with the class.

Due to the forecasted fog/sky cover I slept through it. Maybe I'll catch the next one.
