Yea so tonight there's a meteor shower peaking at ~2am by the constellation LEO.

For all you on UN East, it'll be visible after midnight in the lower eastern sky. If you got a clear view on the eastern sky around midnight, I suggest you put on some heavy clothing & check it out.

Gunna post any pics/vids here if I'm lucky enough to catch any.
