Speccy Meteor Shower ??

One for our Northern members .... Maybe
Constellation Camelopardalis
Multiple studies predict[7][8] [9] Comet 209P/LINEAR may cause a new significant annual meteor shower which would appear to radiate from Camelopardalis on the night of 23/24 May starting in 2014. There may be 100 to 400 meteors per hour.[7. It would be good at 400/hr

Nope.

I've looked into this one and I don't think anyone in Australia has a hope of seeing anything - we are too far south AND it is predicted to happen on the other side of the globe. A double whammy of bad.

This article sums it up pretty well. I'll be keeping a keen eye out for reports on it, though.
