The estimate is how many you might really see from a dark spot here, allowing for how high the shower climbs and for moonlight. "Under a perfect sky" is the best case. The bar also counts the forecast cloud at the best time, so a clouded-out night sits at the bottom, as does rain on the radar now.

Not many meteors, but known for bright fireballs.

Día de Muertos - the Day of the Dead - is kept in Mexico, and wherever Mexican families live, on November 1 and 2. Families welcome back the souls of their dead with ofrendas - home altars of photographs, candles, the favorite foods of those who died and pan de muerto - and with paths of cempasúchil marigolds, whose color and scent are said to guide the souls home. November 1 is often given to children who died and November 2 to adults, and many families spend the night in the cemetery, by candlelight at the decorated graves.

It joins older Indigenous ways of honoring the dead with the Catholic All Saints' and All Souls' Days. UNESCO added it to its list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008.
