Anyone can plan to go out and look for the strong return of the Leonid meteor shower expected for the early morning hours of Tuesday, November 19th. A very bright Moon will be lighting up the night, but even so, many meteors may show through the moonlit sky. Here are the best predicted times to watch:
In the Eastern time zone, from 5 to 6 a.m. Tuesday or just before dawn, whichever comes first at your site. (You can find when morning twilight begins by entering your location into our almanac.) Also, skywatchers in the northeastern U.S. and Atlantic Canada can try looking for a possible earlier, lesser wave of meteor activity from about 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. EST or AST.

Central time zone: From 4 to 5 a.m. Tuesday

Mountain time zone: From 3 to 4 a.m. Tuesday

Pacific time zone: From 2 to 3 a.m. Tuesday
