Big Meteor Shower Jan. 8 was created by treeman

I just found out about this. A big meteor shower is headed our way. If you have never seen a meteor shower from the treetops, now is your chance.

I just wrote a blog post about how to watch meteors from the treetops. Check it out.

I'm familiar with the Quadrantid meteor shower. It is a very small event, with a very small window of opportunity compared to the Perseids. The peak this year was on January 3. By the 8th, the shower will be all but over.

Check it out at Space.com. https://www.space.com/spacewatch/080103-meteor-shower.html
