I've already seen one (Thursday night?) that started above my head and ended at the horizon (although I live in a small valley, with mountains nearby... and it ended above a mountain that's at least 3-4 miles away?). It was VERY bright, white light, and I saw when it exploded, leaving an orange light almost like fireworks! It was gorgeous and sent chills down my back!

Of course I completely meant to watch this morning and slept right through it. :( Just like every year. I suppose I might see a few tonight.
