see a meteor storm

I’ve seen meteors, I’ve observed meteor showers, but I’d love to observe a meteor storm. A storm is defined as a meteor shower where 1000 or more meteors are observed per hour. Some storms have reached intensities of four meteors per second. This has been a dream for a number of years.

The best chance for this to happen would be if the earth had a close encounter with a long-period commet, passing through its tail.
