The Quadrantids meteor shower peaks from Buenos Aires around Jan 3-4, with up to 110 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. From Buenos Aires the radiant in Boötes barely clears the horizon, peaking at just 6°, far too low for the Quadrantids to amount to anything. In 2026 a half moon will wash out fainter meteors, but you would need to travel toward the northern hemisphere to catch this one. Tonight: complete cloud cover across the forecast window.

How to Watch from Buenos Aires
- Find a dark spot away from city lights — parks, hilltops, or rooftops work well

- Give your eyes 20 minutes to adapt to the dark
