A New Major Meteor Storm in 2014?
Will Comet 209P/LINEAR produce a meteor storm, or at least a strong meteor shower?
The more recent, less optimistic calculations come from Quanzhi Ye and Paul A. Wiegert, – both at University of Western Ontario – . suggest a rate of 200 meteors per hour under ideal conditions
” it’s highly unlikely that we’re in for a meteor storm” (1,000 per hour) — although the team couldn’t quite rule it out.
Comet 209P/LINEAR’s orbit brings it near the sun in just over 5 years. Its next perihelion passage will be May 6, 2014.

The comet itself is not all that exciting. What’s exciting is that calculations of the orbit of P209/LINEAR indicate that — in May 2014 — the comet’s debris trails will pass close to Earth. Debris left behind by the comet may enter our atmosphere and burn up, creating a new meteor shower.
