Rain Break, Meteor Shower!

Today a slight clearing between rains

I can almost see the sun again

There's more rain lurking to the west

Still drought relief, far from a pest

And, then two lovely days

Warmer with clouds swept away

For early risers, take a peak outside

Might see a long streak slide

Across the morning sky

An Orionid meteor cruising by

Dust left by Halley's comet 33 years ago

Moving fast, air crash, friction, a glow

Orion the Hunter will be high overhead

Check it, if before dawn you're outta bed

But, not tomorrow

Clouds, rain, meteor blocking sorrow

Quarter moon earlier today

🌗

Easiest to see in early light of day

But, not tomorrow

Clouds, rain, moon blocking sorrow

And, solar minimum so no sunspots

Likely only thing on the sun, a dot

As Mercury crosses sun, 11 November

I've have more, to help you remember..

If you live along our northern border

Northern lights from sun's disorder

Solar wind storm later this week

Southernly Auroras, bit of a freak

Alaska got the shakes today

And, Vanuatu with big 6.4 sway

But, very deep so no big wave

5.4 in Iran, shaky Earth won't behave

Sun is back, clouds are thinning

Dog is snoring, I am grinning

What a good dog, the Breyer D

Curled up cute as can be

Time to do finally party clean

So, no more trash is seen

Your week, mix of rain & sun

Either way get our for some fun

Today On Earth
