Abstract
The authors of many works published mainly in the Internet in the last few years state that the ground temperature sharply decreases during meteor showers, which supposedly leads to a climate change. In the present paper, we estimate the ground temperature decrease caused by sunlight screening during main meteor showers. The temperature of a planet is determined by the thermal balance equation that relates the energy flux from the Sun to the planet and the energy flux emitted by the planet [1–3]. With allowance for the emission and Kepler laws, the temperature Т of the planet rotating about a star with the photosphere temperature Т* is generally determined as
