So this morning I actually did manage to get up at 5:15 and look for the Leonids. Unfortunately, between haze, clouds, and suburban light pollution, I didn’t see any meteors. I did go outside at 12:30am before going to bed and see a few, though, including one particularly good meteor. For my last chance ever at seeing them, I would have preferred to see them laying on my back in the middle of the desert, but my driveway had to do.
