The Leonid meteor shower is set to peak on Sunday morning, but observers can expect a modest display with up to ten meteors per hour. Unlike the August Perseids, optimal viewing conditions may be hindered by light pollution and a bright moon. The Leonids originate from Comet 55P/Temple-Tuttle, which takes approximately 33 years to orbit the sun. Future forecasts predict a potential meteor storm with up to 1,000 meteors per hour around 2031, offering hope for more spectacular sightings ahead.
