Default Perseid Meteor shower

If you are planning on fishing this weekend you might want to keep an eye out for the Perseid Meteor shower which is visible from mid-July each year, with the greatest activity between August 8 and 14, peaking about August 12.

During the peak, the rate of meteors reaches 60 or more per hour.

The best show will be in the hours before dawn, up to 80 per hour for one observer. Here is a site that lists all of the showers on a monthly schedule:
