– December 26, 1906
All day
Peak: December 22, 1906, around 03:00 UTC — up to about 10 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 45% lit: some moonlight, which will hide the fainter meteors. Meteors seem to come from Ursa Minor; the debris is from Comet Tuttle. A modest shower near the December solstice, for the Northern Hemisphere. Peak times and rates: the International Meteor Organization's working list.
