(meteorobs) Perseid predictions?

[Sigmund Shen]

Speaking of the Perseids, is there gonna be any meetup this weekend to
view them in the NYC area?  Years ago I met with the AAA at a park in
Long Island and we had a blast.  This Saturday night my wife and I
plan to be in the Orange County area and were thinking of looking for
a dark skies location to view the shower there if we can't find a
meetup.

That is why we try to also list the date and time, so that the general public has a clue as to when to look. It was unfortunate that Mikhail used the wrong date but nobody is perfect.
