Only if the cloud cover breaks!

Oh, man, that sucks!

I have clear skies here, but there will be a good bit of light pollution. Despite years of vague intentions, I've never had a chance to see the perseids from a decent location.

The annual Perseid meteor shower is promising to put on a dazzling sky show. Astronomers say up to 100 meteors per hour are expected to streak across the sky during the shower's peak. In North America, the best time to watch is before dawn Wednesday Aug. 12, 2009.

GreenEyedLady,

I'm sorry to hear that! I went out last night and it had become overcast here, too. Maybe tonight!

Google changed their picture to celebrate the perseids.
