I just want to let all of you know that the Draconid meteor shower that is usually a weak shower just might be fairly strong this year. Look outside in the 7th, 8th, 9th with the 8th being the strongest. The parent comet is in the neighborhood so a strong shower is possible.

Awesome, but I think the skies will be cloudy those days for me. Such is my luck for astronomical events.

Clouds were one of the major reasons that I moved from Pa. to Az.
@starwatcher-al I would like to be out in the middle of nowhere so I can see the stars the way they were meant to be seen.

Posted by starwatcher-alI missed the early phases of the eclipse but the clouds mostly left during totality. All in all a great eclipse. Next one is Nov. 8-22
