Scots can catch a dazzling display of shooting stars when the Draconid meteor shower begins tonight .
This particular shower is best seen in the early evening, offering early risers and little ones a chance to see the night sky dotted with shooting stars. That means Scots should wait around for dusk which begins around 7:15pm these days. Fortunately, Saturday will be dry for most, the weather will line up with the shower's peak on October 8.
The RMG explains: "While most other meteor showers are best seen in the early hours, the Draconids are best seen in the evening, after nightfall."
