Perseid Meteor Shower Peak Tonight | Cincinnati News

Don’t miss the Perseid meteor shower—the year’s most dazzling sky show—peaking tonight with 50 to 100 shooting stars per hour! Best viewed around 4 AM on August 13th, away from city lights. These streaks are tiny comet debris burning up in our atmosphere. Unfortunately, rain and clouds threaten views in places like Cincinnati and Columbus. Dress warmly—even summer nights chill fast. The moon’s in new phase, perfect for spotting faint meteors, so aim toward constellation Perseus (near Cassiopeia’s M/W shape). For top-tier stargazing, head to dark-sky spots like Geauga Observatory Park or Stonelick State Park—if the weather breaks.
