The Aurigid shower will last only an hour and a half, with a bright Moon in the sky. It will be brilliant to those located in the Western United States and have some bright shooting starts to see.

“We predict that the shower will be visible by the naked eye from the western United States, especially in California, Hawaii, Alaska, other western states and from Mexico and the western provinces of Canada. Prime viewing time will be on Saturday, Sept. 1, 2007, a half hour on either side of 4:36 a.m. PDT. The whole event will last no longer than one-and-a-half hours. Twenty-five minutes long rates will be above half the peak rate.”
