Stef passed on this information about meteor showers this weekend:

The 12 th and 13th of August is the best time that you can see meteor shower this year.

They are called Perseids, and you can expect to see at least 60 meteors per hour.

According to NASA, the best time to see the Perseids this year is “between 2 a.m. and dawn on August 12th, if you get away from city lights, you could see hundreds of meteors. This is a good time to go camping!”
