That morning
Sunrise
Fair
8:51 AM
No cloud overhead to catch the color, so it shows on the horizon and any distant clouds as the sun comes up - learned from 79 rated clear past sunrises across every place Sky Time tracks.
Meteor shower
Orionids
Active, around 9 an hour
Best around 6:42 AM
From 8:27 PM to 7:24 AM
The rate at the top 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. Clouds are not counted here: check the sunset page for those.
Also from Halley's Comet. Fast meteors that often leave glowing trails.
