>"i wonder if i am a nerd to be up at this hour waiting for it.. or if i am a even bigger one for setting my alarm to wake me up. still only seen one about 10 mins ago"
>hey boys, aren't I such a nerd? Look at how special and unique I am haha :3

>>4215795
i posted a link to a live feed hence one wasn't already here in the event anyone in eurofag land or the west coast wanted to see.

what is your problem?

>>4215772

>hard optics
pick one

Relax man, just poking fun at a persons comment. It reminded me of "I read a whole book, I'm such a nerd!" type status updates.

>>4215805
so is it a waste of time? i was going to stay up a few extra minutes if it meant seeing something, but it's nearing 3am and i don't see shit.

>>4215807
noticed that after i posted, was too much of an autist to look at the comments beforehand. sorry.

>>4215808
At this rate, I doubt it. If they catch anything, it will probably be uploaded tomorrow.

>>4215809
No worries. Check this one out.
>"omg i was just outside and seen a shoting star :) and so far i havent seen a mete[o]r yet :("

I was outside for about 45 minutes... It's blowing too much to stay outside.

Saw a handful of streaks in that time.

My sides.

I blame all of the bullshit popsci TV shows for this.

Nothing, it's 4 am in New York, it's freezing and not a goddamn meteor in sight.

I wish I could see the stars. Fucking light pollution.

NASA's feed sucks

>>4215829
Well can you blame them? Their budget is about $7.50 now. They probably found the camera in the garbage and are stealing wifi.

>>4215814
Haha holy shit, is she for real?

I saw 3 meteors at 3am here on Long Island NY. Now Im warming up with some tea and flipping between /sci and the NASA feed. Their "Fluximator" tool says the peak for the shower here should be about 5am or so. Hmmm.

i'm in LA. just saw two fly across the sky now. fuckers are fast.

>mfw I live in Australia
>mfw the only thing I see in the sky is flying spiders
You guys are lucky.

>>4215843
At least we have the best fireworks in the world?

>>4215843
I share your pain.

>>4215848
Fireworks by Cat-eye Perrier seems to prove you right!

Louisville Kentucky here, saw 4-6. First one we saw lit up the entire lower part of the sky. Was quite amazing, my first time.

I wish I could have my meteor shower cherry popped...
