NWS radar captures incoming nearly a day after Orionids: Southern view

The focus is the incoming seen on radar echoes flying across several states that the NWS Radar Mosaic caught. I captured this in two halves, north and south. Both are from the 50 minutes of 2328z on 22 October to 0038z on 23 October. I let it loop a few times. There was one swarm of them.

Those spikes you see are actually caused by the sun as it sets - which is why those radials move from east to west. You can see them every morning (pointing and moving in the other direction) and evening as the sun rises and sets. There is a point at sunrise and sunset where the radar dish points directly at the sun and is hit with this energy.
