Explanation:
Many of the 1998 Leonid shower meteors were so
bright they could be seen even during sunrise.
The
above photograph was taken near the dawn of November 16 close to
Hong Kong, China.
However, most
meteors are fainter and are not associated with any
particular meteor shower.
On any given night from a dark location
it would not be unusual to see up to 10 meteors per hour,
while the predictable
Meteor showers might feature
100 meteors per hour.
A true meteor storm will occur only a few times per century.
The actual intensity of
meteor storms
is notoriously hard to predict,
but may feature rates upwards of 10 meteors per second.
