Going to be very cloudy here. Thought others may want to step out and look up tomorrow night about midnight.

Rare meteor storm may be triggered by comet Thursday night (Peak 11:50 p.m EDT) And still Trump refuses to take ownership for global warming. How dare he!

6 per minute? If you have clear skies and are up at 11:50pm EDT step out for a minute or two. Peak should be quite a few more than 6 a minute. Might be spectacular. (wear a helmet just in case ;-) Wish we didn’t have low clouds in the forecast for tomorrow night.

Mysterious comet will cause a rare ‘Unicorn’ meteor storm this week. Here’s how to watch.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/20/world/rare-unicorn-meteor-shower-scn-trnd/index.html
> Two meteor scientists, Peter Jenniskens and Esko Lyytinen, shared their prediction for an outburst by the alpha Monocertoid meteor shower on November 21 or 22, depending on your location... The best views will be in South America, eastern North America, western Europe and northwestern Africa. The radiant point of the meteors is in the Monoceros, the Unicorn constellation, near Orion the Hunter... during a normal shower it only produces a few meteors each night. The large outbursts of this shower previously occurred in 1925, 1935, 1985 and 1995, with the outburst being a complete surprise for each of those years, except when it was predicted in 1995, according to the American Meteor Society. The meteor shower comes from the dust trail of an unknown comet... During the 1995 outburst, the hourly rate of meteors was around 400. If the prediction is correct and that happens again, skygazers can expect to see around seven meteors streaking across the sky per minute. But the rate could actually mean two to three meteors close together and then another minute before activity picks up again. They’ll be moving at about 140,927 miles per hour.

“Night of the Comet” was so bad, it was hilarious.
My daughters were young teens and absolutely loved it.
I saw a video interview of the director who stated the “empty downtown LA” scene was filmed early Christmas morning when no one was on the streets...because the budget was severely limited.
