Perseids this week
"The Perseids are one of the most exciting and dynamic meteor showers; producing fast-moving shooting stars throughout July and August. Based on IMO observations from recent years, we expect the "normal" peak of ~100 meteors per hour to occur in the night of August 12-13 between 18h and 7h Universal Time."
Of course you will need dark skies to see 100 meteors per hour, but the talk around sites is it should be a good year for showers and the moon phase is helpful.
