The annual Perseid meteor shower has begun in modest fashion and will soon start building toward a peak Aug. 12, when as many as 60 or more shooting stars could be visible each hour from the Northern Hemisphere.
Technically, the peak occurs in the afternoon of Aug. 12 in North America. Meteors can only be seen at night, however. The best views will come late Sunday, Aug. 11 into the early hours of Monday. The shower should remain strong Monday night and into dawn on Tuesday, Aug. 13.
So if your out late, put the top down and watch the show.

The Perseids are awesome...

Last year we laid out and watched the Leonid meteor "Storm" Last Nov. 16th. We saw literally hundreds of meteors and saw as many as 4 to 5 at once! Earth had passed ritght through a comets dust trail. This Nov seems to be almost as good. mark your calendar for that one and turn the heat up in the Prowler!
