The Orionids meteor shower peaks from Singapore around Oct 21, with up to 20 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. In 2026 a bright moon will hide most meteors except the brightest, and from Singapore the radiant in Orion climbs to 76° above the north horizon around 05:25. Local best viewing window: 01:10–05:35 UTC+08 on the peak night, about 4.4 hours of astronomical darkness. Scaled to that altitude, the 20/hour headline figure works out to roughly 19 meteors an hour from Singapore under a genuinely dark sky. Tonight: complete cloud cover across the forecast window.

- Give your eyes 20 minutes to adapt to the dark
- Face north — Orion reaches 76° at 05:25 UTC+08, its highest while the sky is still dark
