Why this weekend's Perseid meteor shower should be exceptionally stunning in West Michigan | MLive.com:
"According to NASA, viewing this year should be exceptional if skies are clear, because the moon will be in crescent shape and set early.
Amplifying view opportunities, the moon "will set shortly after midnight, leaving dark skies from late night until dawn," the agency wrote on its website.
Sunday and Monday nights are expected to be the best for Perseid viewing. "
