METEORS OR ASTEROID STARS HIT THE EARTH DURING THE 7 YR TRIB

7 (WOE 1) Ye who turn judgment to wormwood,(POISON) and leave (CAST) off righteousness in the earth,(GROUND)
18 (Woe 2) unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.
19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
AMOS 6:1
1 (Woe 3) to them that are at ease in Zion,(JERUSALEM) and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!(WOE 3 IS THIRD WAVE OF WW3 WHEN ALL NATIONS MARCH TO JERUSALEM FOR BATTLE)

7 Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not;(THE SUN BLACKEND) and sealeth up the stars.(WHICH NOW FALL FROM HEAVEN)
8 Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.(THESE SAME MEORITES MIGHT POISON ALL THE EARTHS WATERS ALSO)
9 Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.(AND IT IS INTERESTING GOD THRONE IS IN THE NORTH.AND FROM THE SOUTH THESE METEORITES WILL BE FALLING ON EARTH)
COULD THE FALLING STARS-PLANETS BE PLEIADES AND ORION-JUST MY THOUGHT
Historically, the Pleiades were seen as a group of seven stars – its brightest stars: Alcyone, Atlas, Electra, Maia, Merope, Taygeta and Pleione are visible to the keen naked eye. However modern observations show that this most famous of open clusters is comprised of several hundred stars wreathed in intricately structured nebulosity.As the Pleiades cluster is close to the ecliptic (within 4°) in the constellation of Taurus it is a spring and autumnal 'seasonal' object in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Being close to the ecliptic, there are frequent occultations of the cluster with the Moon and planets. To our superstitious ancestors these were, no doubt, portentious events. Likewise, the apparent annual motion of the cluster would have been highly significant. The heliacal (near dawn) rising of the Pleiades in spring in the northern hemisphere has from ancient times augured the opening of the seafaring and farming season: while its dawn autumnal setting marked the season's end.And also Spring and fall are Bird migration seasons in Israel.It would not surprise me if Israeli wars are not fought around the time of the Pleiades-Orion happenings.The Bible contains three direct references to the Pleiades in Job 9:9 and 38:31, and Amos 5:8, and a single indirect reference in the New Testament. This latter passage (Revelation 1:16) describes a vision of the coming of the Messiah – who holds, in his right hand, seven stars.Well since the meteors do hit the earth in the last 6 months of the 7 year tribulation period.I believe.Jesus' return will be only 6 months or so from happening.So this Pieades (meteorites) earth hit would be warning the world that Jesus is about to return to earth literally.

Meteor showers to light up P.E.I. sky-[CBC]-August 5, 2016-YAHOONEWS
Astronomers are predicting the Perseid meteor shower will be extra spectacular this year.And for Islanders who want to take full advantage of the spectacle, Glen Roberts of the Charlottetown Astronomy Club suggests watching from somewhere away from the city lights, such as the North Shore."The darker the site you're under the more that you're going to see," he said.The Perseids happen each August as Earth passes through the stream of dust and debris left by the comet Swift-Tuttle. They create bright streaks as they crash into Earth's atmosphere at about 214,000 km/h.At their peak at 3 a.m.This year, the Perseids will be in the sky on Aug. 11 at about 10 p.m. until 4 a.m. the next morning, Roberts said, but they'll be at their peak at about 3 a.m."Usually we see about 50 to 100 per hour, but this year they're predicting we could see twice that number or possibly even more," Roberts said.He said that's because the debris trail got nudged a little closer to Earth's orbit by Jupiter this year.'Fairly reliable'-"Meteor showers are notoriously fickle so you can never predict for sure the number you are going to see or how intense it will be, but the Perseids are usually fairly reliable," he said."At times they can be quite spectacular. You may go a period of time when you only see one or two and then all of a sudden you may see a handful come."
Next week's Perseid meteor shower could be like no other-Miriam Kramer-Mashable•August 4, 2016-YAHOONEWS
The Perseid meteor shower — which is expected to hit its peak during the overnight hours from August 11 to August 12 — is usually considered one of the most spectacular annual light shows of the year. This year, however, it's going to be particularly impressive.Scientists are forecasting that the 2016 Perseid peak will feature an "outburst," with meteor rates potentially reaching as high as 200 meteors per hour in the darkest skies above the United States, according to NASA meteor expert Bill Cooke.Typically, the Perseids produce about half that number of meteors per hour during their peak.Each year around this time, Perseid meteors grace skies around the world as the planet passes through an area of debris left behind by the Comet Swift-Tuttle. This year, the Earth will likely slide through a thicker stream of debris than usual, producing the outburst. The last Perseid outburst was in 2009.When these bits of dust and ice slam into Earth's atmosphere, they produce what look like "shooting stars" briefly streaking above the planet. How we know it's an outburst-Meteor researchers have a pretty good sense that this year's shower will be an outburst because of computer modeling. The models show that Jupiter's gravity has dragged bits of the comet left behind during its orbits in 1862, 1479, and 1079 into Earth's path around the sun, possibly making this an outburst year, Cooke says.This kind of meteor shower forecasting is a pretty recent advent, he added."Before the 1990’s, we simply looked for periodicities in outbursts; for example, the Leonids were noted for storms every 33 years or so, and there were great displays in 1833 and 1866," Cooke told Mashable in an email."However, this method proved unreliable, as nothing much was seen in 1899 and 1933 (the lack of a show in 1899 was described by the newspapers back then as the 'greatest blow suffered by astronomy in the eyes of the public')."Today, scientists use computer modeling to check the possible orbits of debris left behind by a comet and calculate how a planet's gravity influences those particles. This kind of calculation is called "meteor stream modeling," Cooke said. Researchers in Ireland actually came up with the idea to do this in 1899, Cooke added. However, the computing power needed to accomplish this intense task wasn't available until about 20 or 30 years ago."Little progress was made until the 1990’s, which is when computers were finally fast enough to do meteor stream modeling," Cooke said. "Now we can do what the Irish astronomers suggested well over 100 years ago, and this enables us to forecast meteor shower activity for the Perseids."-Spotting the Perseids-Your greatest chance of actually seeing this meteor outburst is if you get far from city lights on the night of August 11 into the wee hours of the morning on August 12.Artificial light and the light of the moon will blot out all but the brightest meteors streaking through the sky, so the farther from a city center you can get, the better. NASA expects that the peak of the shower will be from midnight to sunrise on August 12, after the moon has set in your local area.If you do plan to go meteor hunting, find an area that provides you with a comfortable view of a wide swath of the sky, lie back and allow your eyes about 45 minutes to adjust to the dark. "The meteors you’ll see this year are from comet flybys that occurred hundreds if not thousands of years ago,” Cooke said in a statement. “And they’ve traveled billions of miles before their kamikaze run into Earth’s atmosphere.”
