I saw at least 5 of them walking my dog last night in Pottsboro, a little bit away from the larger cities of Sherman and Denison.
The night before I saw one flare and fall directly above bright(ish) Denison, TX while delivering a pizza! This is too cool....too bad today is rainy.
What gives on the hightened meteor activity lately?

Re: meteors!
It's the Taurid Meteor shower which is associated with Encke's Comet. and which has elevated activity about every 3 years with a high frequency of fireballs.
