Meteor Shower

Get ready to wish on a thousand shooting stars in Texas.

A current meteor shower is possibly the cause of a fireball that flew across the Texas sky Wednesday night.

The oldest and largest meteor shower in the world is about to flash over East Texas, and there is one day that the display will be at a peak.

East Texas could see rain and a meteor shower this weekend, and that's just the beginning of the interesting atmospheric events this month.

Star gazers can catch another meteor shower soon. The Leonids meteor shower peaks the night of November 17.

Another meteor shower will light up the night sky in the coming nights. The Orionids meteor shower peaks October 21 and 22, but it’s active through November 7.

It’s normally one of the best meteor showers of the year, but this year it might be a little difficult to see some of the meteors from the Perseid meteor shower.

Coming up this weekend, you’ll have the chance to see a few meteors streaking across the night sky.

Well, if you're awake, it doesn't hurt to look up every once in a while. Maybe take a camera with you. We'd love to see some shots of the big Texas sky.

The Perseid Meteor Shower peaks this weekend.  According to EarthSky.org the best viewing should be tonight (Sun 8/11) around midnight and before dawn but also Monday and possibly Tuesday as well.  My understanding is that before sunrise is a pretty good time too.
