The Taurid meteor shower is at its peak now.
I saw the brightest meteor I've ever seen, last night, just after sunset in Calgary. Like the reports here, it was bright green. It lasted for several seconds, before disappearing from view behind a building. I didn't see a trail, probably because it was twilight.

PS This fireball was so spectacular, that I thought I should report it. I found this extremely user-friendly site: http://www.amsmeteors.org/members/imo/report_intro There are also Android and iPhone apps.
