It begins! Three Perseids so far, and the sky is JUST getting dark. Saturn looking AWESOME! The Moon is amazing! Sending a sick feed of M13 into the Channel 5 truck. We're live at Onan.

I saw ~60 meteors between 11:30 and 3 AM, 3 more on the way home while driving on 212. The clouds came in at 3.

Thanks for hosting the party last night and keeping ELO open later than originally posted. My wife and I stayed until after 1:00 AM and were rewarded with lots of bright meteors.
