Lyrid Meteor Shower
For those of you that like to gaze at heavenly bodies tonight is the night for meteors.
The Lyrids appear to radiate from the constellation Lyra which will rise in the NE around 23.00
and by 02.00 will be in the east at around 45deg.
By 05.00 Lyra will be almost overhead.

Not a cloud in the sky here. A bit misty on the horizon.
We haven't had rain since I cleaned out my fish tank.
