    I wish you luck. It certainly gets frustrating since the “100 meteor/hour” includes the whole sky and very faint meteors. I was at a mild suburban beach outside the metro areas (Bortle class 4/5) and saw maybe 10/ hour. That’s 1 every 6 minutes but could be 2 every 12, 3 after 18 mins, etc. Just gotta keep looking up. I tried to catch more while driving home and while taking out the trash but with much less success lol

      Last night (well, early this morn) I did manage to see a few but didn’t manage to get any decent pics. Thankfully I live in a very low light pollution area so it’s not like I have to go far from my house, weather permitting. (according to lightpollutionmap.info my value is 0, but if it’s hazy I can see the glow from nearby towns.)
