This is the annual Perseids meteor shower. Best viewing will be after 2:00am (when the moon sets) on Tuesday, August 12. Meteors will appear from the constellation Perseus, which rises in the northeast just before midnight.Take a blanket outside Monday night, stay up until 3:00, look toward the northeast, and enjoy the show.
Trouble locating Perseus? Try this tool [Hat Tip].

i love these. we try to watch them each year.
Thanks for the reminder. It's been awhile since I watched a meteor shower.
I've made a date with my wife. Woohoo!
Break free Sassy and live large.
Go out Monday night, get naked under a blanket with your wife, and watch the sky.
Okay, now I'm really laughing! Naked outside??? Uh, mosquitoes and bugs! No thanks to creepy crawlies in girly places.
