Tonight great Perseid meteor shower

Tonight is lining up for an exceptional display of the Perseid meteor shower. Good weather across the country and a lack of moonlight should lead to extremely favorable viewing conditions, with forecasts for several meteors a minute. If you've never seen a meteor shower properly before, it's something that you either are into or not to begin with. If your heart will leap a beat at the thought of watching firey streaks of light emanating from the sky constantly, or you want to stock up on wishes... Either way there's somethng sublime about finding and making your eyes adjust to the night very intensely until all you see more stars than you usually can. Especially given how much light pollution we live under. Anyway here's some great viewing guides from NASA here and at Space.com over here. Enjoy. I'm headed out to Jones Beach on Long Island to watch.
