Perseid Meteor Shower - A heads up!

I can never see these things. Too much light pollution near my house, I guess. Doesn't help that there's a street lamp five feet from my driveway.

 

Man I wish I could see this sort of thing. Stupid city life!

 

If you can find clear skies and are patient enough you can see meteors or satellites just about every night.

I saw one last night as a matter of fact .

 

Usually these things are to far South for a good view of them.

Or at 4 am in the morning.

I'd be surprised if someone did not set up a webcam to cover this.
