Yes, we're keeping our fingers crossed for clear skies, too.

To us "down under" the Perseid radiant just skims the northern horizon in the pre-dawn hours - no good for meteor watching, sigh!

I wanted to.... but there is so much cloud cover I don't hold up much hope.

no shower here last night because there were different showers

I parked myself outside the back door, where I have a great view of Cassiopeia, with Perseus below. So far 12 shooting stars!

Incredibly clear sky full of stars here and I've seen a couple shooting right across the sky - amazing to think people all round the world are star-gazing tonight

Heavily clouded sky the last two nights so no star-gazing. Besides, heavy rain as well and the ground is sodden, not suitable for lying on one's back.

Having read Wyndham's "The Day of theTriffids" when quite young (and impressionable?) I avoid looking at meteor showers
But I still "wish upon falling stars"!

When I look at my Erythronium's and Ian's I really have to ask myself why do I bother?Maybe Otto or Paul can grow them like that
but I certainly can't. bye Ray
