Don't forget Leonids shower Sunday morning 18th AM

Tomorrow morning AM (sunday morning, morning of 18th nov)
while not predicted to be anything special, and probably mostly fainter meteors requiring very dark skies for full show. Worth a mention tho.
best times should be when radiant is highest in sky, say 3-4-5 am. i cant make it out myself too much to do atm

100% cloud cover. Even the Moon cannot punch through. Bed time for me.
