The Tucson camera picked up more meteors than usual last night including lots of nice bright meteors. Many of the bright ones were from the 2 Taurid showers. Oddly, I didn’t pick up any Orionids last night.
Clouds and rain are predicted for the next 2 nights as a strong low pressure system moves into the western states. In Arizona we may get some additional moisture from Hurricane Norbert as it tracks across Baja and northern Mexico.

The Transient Sky - Comets, Asteroids, Meteors 
My wife and I observed a meteor on October10, 2008 in Bar Harbor, Maine. It was the longest and brightest one I have ever seen, seeming to disintegrate at the end. The time was 2330-2400 give or take an hour (I did not check my watch). It came from the southwest and ended in the northeast, covering an arc of 30-45 degrees. It took long enough for me to remark on it and my wife to find it and see the end of its flight, perhaps 2 seconds. My first guess was space junk since I have never seen a meteor take that long or transverse that much of the sky. Anyone else see it?
