Which way do we look?


If you are still in the LP look to the western skies 1:45 to 2:15 am.

quote:

The Tau Herculids will actually originate from the constellation Boötes, radiating from just above the star Arcturus, a ruddy orange-yellow entity that will be the brightest star in the sky of the Northern Hemisphere at that time. Locating Arcturus is easy if you can find the Big Dipper: Simply trace a line from the last two stars in the Dipper’s handle in a direction away from its bowl. The first bright star you see should be Arcturus.

I'm in Cape Coral, FL (Ft Myers area. South of Tampa, north of Naples.) Just took a look outside and didn't see anything obvious, but it's partly cloudy. I can see a few stars, but I have no clue as to which ones I'm seeing.
Should I check again in 45 minutes or so?
