Is this a meteor storm?

No. The Royal Observatory lists the northern Taurid maximum on 12 November 2026, with a possible rate of about 5 an hour, and calls them very slow. The shower is active from about 20 October to 10 December. The southern Taurids peaked in October.

The Leonids, from comet Tempel-Tuttle, peak on the night of 17 to 18 November. A dark hour is worth more than a prediction. The Taurid page is the date, not a horoscope.
