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.

The second half of the Taurids, peaking about a week after the Southern Taurids.

Veterans Day, November 11, honors everyone who has served in the US armed forces. It began as Armistice Day, for the armistice that ended the fighting of the First World War at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, 1918, and was renamed in 1954 to honor the veterans of all wars.
