Anyone know if the Perseid Meteor shower is on tonight? (lemmy.world)

From what I've read is that it was on from mid July until mid August, I'm wondering if anyone has seen them with any luck?

Every time I've seen impressive Perseid meteors was around mid august+-1 week. (and with low light pollution, of course)

Clouds are out around Manchester - even if it was Perseid-ing tonight, doubtful I'd spot any from here. 😔

Space Centre UK says 12th August, if that's any help.

Aww man that sucks, I'll check the sky, it's a bit clear from where I am, funny you mentioned the Space Centre because that's where I live, in Leicester 😅

Yeah August 12th is the peak shower, good luck! I'll try and post a pic if not, I'll just holla if there is any.
