I caught a few when I looked up in the clear Alabama sky. Really my first time catching one, Thanks for the heads up WITF.

Too late for me now. :(I never hear about these things until it's too late. Oh well, It was way to cold to be outside last night anyway.Thanks for trying to let me know

If you actually have clear skies overhead you might want to spend a little while outside watching it, it's supposed to be huge.

I was able to see some spectacular "showers" a few weeks ago when I was deer hunting. I was out in the woods at 5:15 am and had some great views.
I enjoyed the show...... well worth it.

The key word is actually when it comes to clear skies....... and the 9 degree temp robs some of the enjoyment too!

I watch it from 11pm to almost 2 am. I saw one that was so big it kinda scared me. It looked larger than a firework. It was really nice, thanks for the heads up!

I believe I said this before - a day late and a dollar short ... go figure.
