Abstract: A number of meteor showers – the Ursids, Perseids, Leonids, eta Aquariids, Orionids, Draconids, and Andromedids – are predicted to exhibit increased rates in 2018. However, no major storms are predicted, and none of these enhanced showers outranks the typical activity of the Arietids, Southern delta Aquariids, and Geminids at small particle sizes. The MSFC stream model1 predicts higher than usual activity for the Ursid meteor shower in December 2018. While we expect an increase in activity, r…
