Default Meteor Shower Tonight...
The Perseid Meteor shower is supposed to peak tonight / early tomorrow (~11PM - 4AM).

I'm gonna get out there with my camera and see what happens.

I would get out to the desert. One of the best places to see those things. Little light pollution, little humidity delusion. Luckily I live 2 hours from a great desert...unluckily the moon is out and I am not going...:hs:

I was going to get out and watch but the clouds rolled in and we are expecting thunder storms.
