The Perseid Meteor Shower has returned to the night sky. The meteor shower will peak on the night of the 12th into the early morning hours of the 13th. However, I believe we may have some obstruction courtesy of some clouds and the threat for some rain. The best night to see it around the Twin Tiers appears to be Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning and again Wednesday night/early Thursday morning.

Happy viewing!
