So I heard there is supposed to be a pretty good meteor shower tonight from 12am to 5am. I'm in Florence, South Carolina. Anyone know any more details or if I'll be able to see it. I've never seen a meteor shower before and would really like to see it.
supposedly north america will be able to see it the best between
1 am & 4 am. the persied shower is one of the best shows, so
yes i will be standing outside at 1 am with a big ole blunt in my
hand.
you'll see the most meteors during those times, but you can see them all night long. some of the coolest looking ones will happen from dusk to midnight, when perseus is low in the sky. As the constellation rises so does the radiant and more meteors will be visible. Kinda a bummer cuz the moon will be rising with the radiant and the glare will make it harder to see the shower.
Went out at midnight for 10 minutes, nothing. Went out at 2am for 10 minutes, nothing. I'm going to try again at 3am and then if I don't see one on the way home then screw it. I think the parking lot lights are making it harder for me to see them here at work.
I just stared at the sky for as long as a drunk guy can (bout 90 seconds) and saw 3, not that spectacular, about what i expected for being in city limits.
Yea it got pretty cloudy around 1am but I hoped it would clear up. It started raining at like 2am. I called it a night. I was pretty dissapointed.
