Ideal conditions to see peak of Lyrid meteor shower in UK
The annual Lyrid meteor shower, triggered by Earth passing through dust from Comet Thatcher, is expected to peak on the night of April 22, 2026, across the UK. Ideal viewing conditions—including clear skies due to high pressure and minimal light pollution from the crescent Moon (which sets after 02:00 BST)—will allow observers to spot 10-15 meteors per hour, with potential surges up to 100; the best viewing is after 22:00 BST away from artificial light, though temperatures will drop to 3-5°C (freezing in parts of northeast England and eastern Scotland).
