Hey, Loungers! Leonid meteor shower this weekend...
Peak is tomorrow night around 5 a.m. however viewing will still be noteworthy tonight between midnight and dawn with meteors in the 10-15 per hour range.
Unfortunately, the full moon ( known as the "Beaver" moon ) reaches it's fullest tommorrow as well, which will wash all but the brightest meteors from view.
At any rate, it's worth checking out if you have clear skies and a desire to stay up late ( or set an alarm... )
Happy viewing!
