Taurid Meteor Shower to Peak as New Moon Arrives
http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/taurid-meteor-shower-fireball-new-moon-space-astronomy-viewing-conditions/53470549

Stargazers are in for a special treat this week as the Taurid meteor shower reaches its peak, producing bright fireballs in the night sky around the world.
This year is a particularly good year for viewing the Taurids as the peak of the meteor shower coincides with the new moon, occurring the night of Nov. 11 into Nov. 12.

(The radiant is just a little bit to the right of the Pleiades star cluster.)
