I saw three meteors two nights ago, at around 4 AM local time when the moon wasn't an issue. Lunar interference may be a little worse tonight since it will be setting later.

I saw the Big Diaper & fortunately it wasn't overflowing or I'd be in even more deep sheet than already am.  "The moon was a dripin' ah dark hood, & they were drivin' 'round & 'round" said my Captian.
