Its been in the news for the last week. It wont be back until 2032(if I remember right).
Edit;
In the article they say 100 years, but it will be 30 years of so before the leonid showers will be back and probably not nearly as bright as they are saying it will be tonight.

Stupid rain.
I called the news and told them to stop saying we needed the rain.
All summer they say "we need the rain, we need the rain". Now I have almost forgot what the sun looks like. My lawn is a bog now.
And now the liberal media has caused me to miss a meteor shower.
Dang nab liberals.
