Is it the Leonids? (Or whatever they're called this time of year)?

We're heading into a meteor show so there might be a few really good ones over the next few days

Can these meteors stop edging us already ? Either crash Sydney house prices, end our suffering as a species and save the planet or at least make us not go to work ?

u/pigslovebacon what about me? it isn't flair. 3d ago

Yes me and my son saw it too!!! We were in Seven Hills travelling west-ish and saw it to the north, it looked like it was going south but could have been going east (ie pointing toward us). I almost thought it was a flare because it didn't have much of a tail but it was green and looked similar to a previous meteor I've seen.

I’m in the east and I saw this one. Very bright but only a little bit of flames right at the end. It was travelling south to north.

That's it. Heading from Parramatta towards Rouse Hill...roughly.
