1:00 am - 1:30 am
Leesburg, VA
39° 6' 56",-77° 33' 48"
Great showing by the Geminids this morning!
21 Geminids were observed from my backyard in 30 minutes.
That's good considering sky obstructions and city light pollution.
Limiting magnitude estimated at about 4.5
The best time to observe meteor showers is after midnight when the Earth is plowing directly into the dust trails left behind by comets. Next major meteor shower is the Quadrantids - expected to peak after midnight January 3 / 4.

Psalm 19:1-3
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.
night after night they display knowledge.
3 There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard.
where their voice is not heard.
