I stayed up a little later than usual last night to see what I could see. Here in rural WV, we have pretty dark nights, although there were some clouds.

From around 10pm to around 11pm I saw probably a dozen meteors, but three of them were spectacular with long tails. The little guys really move. Wish it wouldn’t have been a work night - would have loved to stay up until 1am and see the peak. It was a beautiful temperate night for stargazing.
