Weekend Meteor Shower

      It's that time of the year: Summer.  And one of the signature events of summer in the northern hemisphere is the meteor shower.  That event will occur this weekend: Aug. 10,11,12.  The nightly show begins before sundown but is most visible after dark.  Our relative lack of night light in the Tahoe Basin means that our views will be the best.
      So, get outside tonight, stare heavenward, and look for those streaks of cosmic dust that penetrate a portion of our upper atmosphere.  Enjoy
