Initial Meteor Sighting Reports-
I just saw a meteor. I'm in Victoria on Vancouver island, BC. Canada. Looking out the window at around 9.55 pm. Looking north. The meteor lasted for like 1-2 sec only but it was like a shooting star times 50 or something. Amazing sight.. I wanted to know if you've heard anything of it from others?
Hope to hear from you. Br. Dennis Skou  Thank you Dennis!

Currently we are nearly moon-blind for discovery of approaching, yet undiscovered, NEOs by ground-based telescopes.  I suspect that we will have a few large meteor events during the period of 20NOV-04DEC2013 as we will have three 1.0km  diameter or greater known asteroids passing Earth's  neighborhood  during this period of days.  Observers do have your  security cameras or allsky cameras ready 24/7 please.  If possible get out and observe and you might just be lucky enough to witness a spectacular meteor, fireball, or bolide! Who knos we may get lucky and even have some new meteorites! Please get the word out via Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, ATS, GLP, or your favorite forums and kindly mention this website; thank you-

METEOR??? Maybe not!? I am lacking eye-witness reports of anyone actually seeing anything, only hearsay; NO videos?. We need video of this event; email videos please LunarMeteoriteHunter@gmail.com
Was this Winter Lightning/Thunder only?; this is now my best guess.

A Tale of Two Comets: MESSENGER Captures Images of Encke and ISON
MESSENGER Mission News- November 25, 2013
On November 18, NASA's Mercury-orbiting MESSENGER spacecraft pointed its Mercury Dual Imaging System (MDIS) at 2P/Encke and captured this image
<http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/gallery/sciencePhotos/image.php?image_id=1303>
of the comet as it sped within 2.3 million miles (3.7 million kilometers) of Mercury's surface. The next day, the probe captured this companion image  <http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/gallery/sciencePhotos/image.php?image_id=1304>
of C/2012 S1 (ISON), as it cruised by Mercury at a distance of 22.5 million miles (36.2 million kilometers) on its way to its late-November closest approach to the Sun. MESSENGER's cameras have been acquiring targeted observations
<http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/the_mission/movies/MESSENGER_observes_Encke_and_ISON.mov>
of Encke since October 28 and ISON since October 26, although the first faint detections  <http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/news_room/details.php?id=245> didn't come until early November. During the closest approach of each comet to Mercury, the Mercury Atmospheric and Surface Composition Spectrometer (MASCS) and X-Ray Spectrometer (XRS) instruments also targeted the comets. Observations of ISON conclude on November 26, when the comet passes too close to the Sun, but MESSENGER will continue to monitor Encke with both the imagers and spectrometers through early December. ...

Both lasted a few seconds and fragmented quickly, however they were both falling in the same direction, heading directly towards the ground.
