Got a phone call last night from Joey (sister's boyfriend) to let me know that he had heard on the radio that there was supposed to be a meteor shower this weekend. Well, I just got my email from spaceweather.com informing me of the upcoming event. I knew of the Leonids in November and another one that was frequently in December, but I never really heard of the annual Quadrantid shower. Turns out, this one is supposed to be one of the best this year, cloud cover permitting. I just hope that we don't get the cloud cover that they are calling for so I can actually see these. Of course, that will mean getting up around 4:00 AM on Sunday morning, but I usually get up for something kewl like that.

Unfortunately, the weather is not going to cooperate tonite and it is going to be cloudy :( Oh-well.. Guess I'll miss another one :(
