(meteorobs) Metoer shower a bust, but we did get a Slashdot Story
We are in Chester Springs PA, about 40 miles west of Philadelphia. Drove
about 10 minutes south east because satelite images showed clouds rolling
in. We didn't see one meteor during the peak of 10:38-11:04 PM EST.
Kathy saw two at 11:20 when we headed back in. I think we are going to
drive to the southern point of New Jersey or Delaware, will check the
latest weather... Any weathermen out there with suggestions about what
might be best?
We have been trying hard to promote this exceptional meteor storm event,
and we are getting Slashdotted now! For those that don't know,
slashdotted means getting a story posted on slashdot, posted at 5:16 PM.
