The meteor shower Orionids will be moving over our province from Monday evening. The shooting stars reach a maximum on Wednesday evening around ten o’clock, then there is a chance of 30 to 40 shooting stars per hour. However, it is uncertain whether you will really see so many of them, according to Weerplaza. “Unfortunately, a lot of cloud is expected.”
Meteorologist Raymond Klaassen of Weerplaza explains: “Orioniden is special because in general there are more shooting stars to be seen than in other swarms. The advantage is also that the moon does not disturb. But unfortunately a lot of clouds are expected and then you hardly see them. ”

“If you walk the dog tonight and you see that it is still clear for a while, keep looking upwards for a little longer because then you have a chance that you will see a shooting star.”

Where you live in Brabant makes no difference. “Although you are more likely to see shooting stars in very dark places with less false light, so outside the cities.”
