The best time to witness the shower is sometime before dawn (between 12 a.m. and 5 a.m.), so be sure to set your alarm (or pull an all-nighter). Earth Sky says this is the perfect time because “that’s when the radiant point — near the star Vega in the constellation Lyra — climbs highest up in the sky, and when you’re likely to see the most meteors.” Stargazers will be able to see 10-20 meteors an hour during peak shower time.
Where do you have to be to watch the meteor shower?
f you live in the South and Southwest, you should be able to see the meteors quite clearly. However, if you live in the central, midwestern, and northeaster part of the U.S., the light show might be blanketed by clouds, according to Accuweather. Additionally, the full moon will make it harder for dimmer meteors to be visible to us.
