Perseid Meteor Shower 2025: How, When, and Where to Watch the Spectacle

The Perseid meteor shower, visible until August 23 and peaking on August 12-13, offers a spectacular view of bright meteors, especially in dark rural areas. Despite moonlight and weather challenges, Ohio residents can maximize their viewing by visiting designated dark sky parks like Geauga Observatory Park and Fry Family Park, and watching after midnight or before dawn. Clear skies and minimal light pollution are key for the best experience.
