actualy this is one we see every year at aproximatly the same time, called the Perseid meteor shower, but yes it is a bright and spectualr one. I remember watching in the summers when I was a kid/young adult, about 2 hours out of edmonton camping at the lake.

get out of the city and away from the lights as you might see a few there, in the dark country you will see hundreds.
