Will clouds ruin your view of tonight's meteor shower?
The skies should clear up after midnight for tonight's Perseid meteor shower, typically one of the year's best treats for skywatchers, but the bright moon might dampen the show.
The skies should clear up after midnight and before dawn on Wednesday, according to 11Alive Chief Meteorologist Chris Holcomb. However, the bright moon will make it difficult for people to see the shower.
To find the meteor shower, look in the constellation Perseus, which is just to the left of the Pleiades, the Seven Sisters constellation, in the northeastern portion of the sky.
