The next to mornings November 17th and 18th will see a peak of the fall Leonid meter shower. Early morning viewers will be able to see 10 to 15 meteorites per hour.
You don’t have to find the meteor radiant to view as they will appear in all parts of the sky. To trace the origins of the shower look back to the Algieba Star in Leo. Look for a pattern called the Sickle looks a little like a question mark. Anytime after midnight tonight.
