"Perhaps people have been celebrating Bonfire Night early — it’s not until next week, folks! But I can promise a wet night tonight."

—Jim McGuffin supposes reason of recent peculiar things.^[src]

Bonfire Night is a yearly event dedicated to bonfires, fireworks and celebrations. Great Britain celebrates it in 5 November - Britons call that day also Guy Fawkes Night.^[1]

In 31 October 1991 Jim McGuffin, a TV weatherman (broadcast in Little Whinging) supposed that strange behaviour of owls and "so-called" shooting stars in Kent, Dundee and Yorkshire are a result of people's early celebrating of that day.^[2]
