Meteors to Increase! NEOS Close Approaches in November 2013

NEOS Close Approaches in November 2013  At the time of latest updating  there are  10 11 12 NEOs , originally 2 known, with an LD of 10 or less; the number of discovered NEOs this month will certainly increase! I also expect that there will be many large fireball events; be ready; and observers have your cameras ready!  There are FIVE NEOs greater than 1km diameter; but all are to safely pass.  I expect that there will debris fields traveling ahead and behind these larger bodies so be ready for some action!  Certainly am glad that those small hill-sized ones are not any closer!
