Eyes on the Skies: Perseids Meteor Shower Visible Tonight - VOCM

One of the most impressive annual meteor showers will be visible in some parts of the province tonight.

The National Research Council of Canada says the Perseids can be seen from the northern hemisphere .

They say the best time to see the show is between midnight and dawn while being away from city lights.

Another tip the council gives is to place a red balloon over the flashlight for additional light and to wait at least 20 minutes for the eyes to adjust to the darkness.

It’s a bird… It’s a plane… It’s a #MeteorShower ☄️!
