First major meteor shower of 2020 will peak tonight | 13 WTHR Indianapolis

January's star-studded sky will have an extra twinkle on Jan. 3 into the morning of Jan. 4.

The Quadrantids meteor shower will put on an impressive but brief celestial show tonight, according to EarthSky.org. The meteor shower can produce over 100 meteors per hour but will only last a few hours.

Although the Quadrantids have been active since Dec. 27, tonight is when they will peak.
