Thanks bednobs.
Are you letting your 8-year-old stay up to see it? I think you should :)

ha, getting her to bed at anytime is tricky so I'm sure shed love an excuse to stay up. It's cloudy here today so doubtful
Doesn't peak till 22nd, so I'm sure there'll be some clear nights before then...
bednobs, I can't read the link because one of those cookie things pops up! Does it say what time?
Question Author
While the peak of the shower won’t be until the early hours of April 22, there’s a good chance you’ll see shooting stars during the later part of the evening so you won’t have to stay up too late to catch a glimpse.
You are likely to see around 10 to 15 shooting stars and hour during the shower but the Lyrid is known for unexpected surges where it’s possible there will be as many as 100.
How to see them

This year the Lyrids occur during the New Moon so the sky should be dark, and clear weather will mean a good view.
To see the shooting stars, look towards the North East after dark towards the constellation Lyra, The Harp.
Rain forecast for here tonight so not much chance of seeing anything.
If you get stuck for a good viewing you can check on here for hopefully a good light show.
