Ok, I've checked and I don't see anything about any meteor showers tonight.

So whats going on in the sky tonight?

 I'm seeing streaks of falling stars from east to west.

 Or is it space junk?

Darn...and I missed it! Maybe its those tools after the bag burned up. Expensive tools gives a lighted shower in the sky...funny thought.

I looked again later and saw nothing. Could have been a few falling stars. I wonder if they can track space tools heading to earth.

A few years back I got up early for work and conted 105 falling stars during the November event.And living in Ocala Nat. Forest at the time they were very distinct. As a kid my brothers and I made it an almost annual event ,of going camping and seeing who could count the most.

Hey thanks Cappy, I'm tracking the tool bag. WOW!!! How COOL!!!!

The bright lights of the city does make it hard to see. It would be great to get out away from the lights.
