Both sources I've looked at say Thursday 5:00 AM is the projected peak.

I have a view of the city to my south, but I am hoping that looking NE it will be darker. I have to get up at 5 am for work, so I thought I would just get up a little earlier. What time is is supposed to peak? -A

Since I must go to work on Thursday, I'm going to watch the Perseids from my yard.

Anyone else sticking around SLC tonight?

Hey, Brent, if you can see West Valley from your house, I'll shine a red laser in your direction at about 4:30 if you'll look for it... Ann, I think I have line-of-sight to your place, too, look for a bright red light in mid-valley around 4:30... I did this in 1975 with a He-Ne laser on 17th avenue, and my observers (my parents) at about 2800 s. & 3200 w.! --- Brent Watson <brentjwatson@yahoo.com> wrote:

Yup, I'll be in my back yard too.

It appears that a garage has been built along my line-of-sight to the north bench in the last 18 months, but if I can find a hole between obstructions I'll still try the signal light. Life is always an adventure. It's almost 11:00 pm and I just realized that we're out of DEET. Maybe I'll finally get that long vacation I've been craving. --- "Ann C.

I will watch for your light, Chuck. Unfortunately, I do not have a laser to flash back. I use my cell phone light at the movie theater to alert my kids/friends where we are saving seats, but that won't work across the valley... Smoke signals?
