What is the peak time for tonight's meteor shower?

It says it's going to peak tomorrow, but that might just mean after midnight.

Just look anywhere in the sky. I saw one about an hour ago, but that was after an hour of looking. Normally you can't see them until after midnight, but unfortunately the predicted swarm only lasts about an hour and will end before midnight in the US. Europe should get a good view though.

There was an Oroinoid (I think) meteor shower a week ago.  I don't know if it is anual, if it is it seems that this was supposed to be an especially good show.\n\nThere are two other easily seen meteor showers that are annual (so they lie in the Earth's orbital path).  I believe Perseids are in August and Leonoids are in November.\n\n\nI found a table in my astronomy book\nHere I'll list the annual shower and when it reaches it's maximum (so you can see it in the few days before and after but this is when you should see the most activity).\n\n\nQuadrantids      Jan 3-4\nLyrids           Apr 22\n*nu* Aquarids    May 5\nPerseids         Aug 12\n*kappa* Cygnids  Aug 20\nOrionids         Oct 21\nTaurids          Nov 1\nLeonids          Nov 17\nGeminids         Dec 13-14\nUrsids           Dec 22

I did.  You had to go out after 3 AM, because otherwise the point at which the meteors were coming in from wasn't up yet.\n\nI saw probably 10 or 12 really good ones even though I live in the outskirts of a city.

well the metoers will be there all night from around 11pm-6am...but it peaks from about midnight-2am. they said that the best view of the leonids is new england, new york, and western europe. so you could have a tough time seeing them but id def give it a shot to see...meteor showers are beautiful and this could possibly be one of the most active in recent years and categorized a meteor storm, hasnt been a meteor storm for the leonids since 2002

Anywhere the sky is clear and there are not too many lights. And look after midnight, because the meteors will be hitting the other side of the Earth before midnight. Just before the start of morning twilight is the best time.

Saturday or Sunday and the earlier the better. Most people are out looking by at least 7am.

i just received email about it, so i'll just copy and paste it... \n\nEarth is about to pass through the dusty tail of Comet Thatcher, and this will cause the annual Lyrid meteor shower. Forecasters expect the shower to peak on April 22nd, producing about 10 meteors per hour--modest, but pretty.  The best time to look is during the hours before sunrise on Saturday morning.  Go to a dark site away from city lights, if possible.\n\nThe Moon will also encounter the comet's tail on April 22nd, which raises an interesting possibility: Amateur astronomers may be able to spot flashes of light on the Moon when comet debris hits the lunar surface and explodes. All that's required is a backyard telescope and lots of patience.\n\nNote: This is a Northern Hemisphere shower.  South of the equator, observers will see very few Lyrids.  Southerners are, however, in an excellent position to observe Lyrid impacts on the Moon.  The Moon rises high in southern skies on April 22nd, in plain view of backyard telescopes.\n\nyou can visit the link below for observing tips and sky maps

Maybe. You need clear skies of course, and you need to look after midnight. Before midnight the radiant is below the horizon. Basically that means the meteors are hitting the other side of the Earth.

Soon! From June 10-21, we should see the June Lyrids meteor shower in the northern hempisphere\n\nhttp://comets.amsmeteors.org/meteors/showers/june_lyrids.html\n\nA site with great info on comets and meteor showers is http://comets.amsmeteors.org/index.html (BTW, you should see the Shoemaker 1 comet tonight)\n\nAlso, for stars in general, I highly reccommend \nhttp://skyandtelescope.com/observing/\n\nIt has a really great interactive map function... also, they offer a customised star chart, v cool!\nhttp://skyandtelescope.com/observing/skychart/article_1220_1.asp\n\nHope that helps!
