The estimate is how many you might really see from a dark spot here, allowing for
how high the shower climbs and for moonlight. "Under a perfect sky" is the best case.
The bar also counts the forecast cloud at the best time, so a clouded-out night sits at
the bottom, as does rain on the radar now.
The most dependable shower of the year, on warm summer nights in the north.
