An annual April meteor shower will peak tonight (April 22), but skywatchers shouldn't expect a spectacular show, experts say.
The Lyrid meteor shower is usually one of skywatching's annual treats, and this year they occur through Monday, April 25. The shower peaks tonight and early Saturday morning, but a bright moon will likely outshine many of the meteors, making them hard to see.
