Viewable in the NE sky most of the night.

I've been looking forward to this all month. Clears up nicely today so I'm think'n "right on! Clear skies tonight" .......of course, the fog rolled in about 7PM. beathead

Maybe some of you can enjoy it. Tell me what I missed!

Watched it from atop Rock Candy Mountain. Good show but then had to take the kid home to bed.

Checked it out on Wed and Thursday night for about 30 minutes each night. Saw a few on Wednesday night, including one that was truly hard to believe.

Last night, I spotted about 8, including 4 of them in about 30 seconds. Always a good time. It is amazing how many satellites you can spot too when you take time to slow down and stare at the sky. I kept thinking, this is better than anything I could watch on TV right now.

I was out trying to shoot a shooter last night. Saw quite a few really good ones but they never passed my cameras field of view.
I really liked a few larger ones that seem to leave a temporary contrail as they burn up in the atmosphere. Cool $hit.
