The Perseids Meteor Shower 2015..,.

...reaches it's peak Wednesday...

Perseids: Meteor light show set to dazzle - BBC News

just a reminder for those interested...and with a cloud free sky!

[Jay22]

Cloudy here last night...fingers crossed for tonight. Have watched for this for years, think I've been lucky enough to see it once!

We had clear skies last night and I managed to catch one shooting star out of the corner of my eye.

I am hoping it will be clear enough on Wednesday and/or Thursday.

Thursday is my birthday and I get this astronomical wonder as a present every year. This year I hope to sit up at the allotment with a glass of beer and just take it in.

I shall be all wrapped up for whatever the W decides to do.

I remember donkey's years ago, when my kids were about 8 & 10 seeing these on TV and made a note of when they were due.

On the red circled night I got the kids up at 1am (this is when they were supposed to be at there hight) and we all trudged outside and spent an hour looking at .......absolutely nothing - it turns out I had circled the right dates but the wrong month on the calender!

It's quite clear here and it's my sons 18th birthday today, we're hoping for a dazzling display just for him

[Tiny Allotment]

Wow, I just about remember my 18th birthday.

Wish him happy birthday and tell him to be careful

Thank you Paul, he has Asperger's so partying is not his thing. He'd enjoy an amazing meteor shower though

Good luck with that tonight, Jay. Hope you get to see the spectacular meteor light show!!!

Hi was just catching up on what's happening on the vine whilst on holiday at the lakes. Had an early night after a long walk and read this thread. Got dressed and went outside and to my delight have just seen 2 shooting stars 😃😃. This is why I love this forum so much Thank you grapes for a wonderful experience

[Jay22]

Too much cloud cover again tonight for us...maybe tomorrow.

[Nicos]

Raining here

[Bren In Pots]

Too much cloud last night hopefully tonight will be clear.

[Tiny Allotment]

Last night was clear (ish) but didn't see any shooting stars
