The annual Quadrantid Meteor Shower will be at its peak tonight.

Peak activity for the shower is quite short and you have to be on the Earth’s night side during the peak.

That bodes well for us, as the International Meteor Organization predicts the peak to come at 2 am.

Look towards the Big Dipper for the best viewing of the meteor shower.

This prediction has a possibility of not holding up because of the nature of meteors, but experts say the prediction looks good for North America.

If the prediction holds up, there’s a chance of catching 15 to 25 meteors per hour, and in an extremely lucky case, more than that.
