Just discovered NEO (2012 BS1)(2012 BY1)(2012 BW13)(2012 BD14) 
will be passing from 23JAN until 30JAN2012 and I expect that we will see a marked increase in Meteor/Fireballs from accompanying debris and yet undetected other NEOs.  Asteroid  433 Eros (EROS) will pass 30JAN far away but may be visible with a telescope.
