METEOR SHOWER: Earth is about to pass through a stream of dusty debris
from
near-Earth asteroid 2003 EH1, producing the annual Quadrantid meteor
shower.
Forecasters expect a brief but intense peak of 50+ meteors per hour over
Earth's northern hemisphere sometime between 0200 UTC and 0700 UTC on
Friday
morning, Jan. 4th. (Subtract 5 hours to convert UTC to EST.) The timing

snip
That figures.....Jan 4 is forecast to have one of the very few rainstorms
here in So Cal. Hope you other guys have good luck!
