Up to 100 meteors per hour can be observed at the height of the Perseid Meteor Shower this weekend into early next week. The best viewing times will be between midnight and sunrise from Sunday night August 11th through sunrise on Wednesday August 14th. If you plan on venturing out to catch the amazing streaks of light you can expect excellent viewing weather in the Northeastern US with clear skies during the optimal viewing times this weekend into early next week. Look to the northeast sky between midnight and sunrise on August 11th through August 14th and you can see up to 100 meteors per hour, that's roughly 1 to 2 meteor per minute or so.
