Last night/this morning I wasn't outside looking. It was too early. I was in the control room imaging.

Then at 1am the cloud rolled in.

Tonight is partly cloudy but I will head out about 1:30-2am and see how the sky is.
If it is clear I will stay out and wait for the 2:30am onwards show.

Due to our dark skies, I see many sporadics anytime I go outside and look up, but Orionids are usually very obvious. They are fast, white, and often very bright! But the radiant is always the give away.

I have attached a map of the radiant for you all.
