When they happen on a warm summer night I am there.

Too cold in NJ tonight.

A cold clear winter night is better for viewing I suppose but I will be warm in bed.

Saw 2 while i could stand the cold.  This is or was the years most minor predicted shower though.  I think the biggest may come around dec 21, maybe.....

But seriously, I see a ton of shooting stars and meteors driving at night.  Ive seen up to 6 a night which is a job perk for me.
