 Takema>>Many of them were (N)Taurids and fireball tends to increase.  You

 notice and observed Taurids.  Perhaps Taurid meteoroid swarm has come.<<
 
 Lew>>What is the (possible) Taurid meteoroid swarm Takema refers to here?<<

I'd be more incline to think they are S. Taurids and not N. Taurids. The S.
Taurids have seemed to be quite active in relation to the N. Taurids up to
this point. Also the S. Taurids are expected to peak around Nov 5th while the
N. Taurids are suppose to peak around Nov 12th. The radiant locations for both
of these showers are quite close and easily to mistaken one for the other.
