The Lyrid meteor shower peaks during the predawn hours of April 22, with its radiant in the constellation Lyra. Observers under dark skies can see roughly 15 to 20 meteors per hour at maximum, while light pollution or clouds will cut visible rates. The shower will be visible across North America and the United Kingdom, and several organizations are streaming the peak live for viewers without clear skies. Best viewing runs from local midnight until dawn, so plan to watch during the predawn window on April 22 for the highest hourly counts.
