Marine Day, the third Monday of July, gives thanks for the ocean's blessings and hopes for the prosperity of Japan, a nation of islands. It began in 1996 on July 20, the day Emperor Meiji came home from a voyage by sea in 1876.

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.

Stays near its best for several nights, not just one.
