Greenery Day, May 4, is a day to enjoy nature and give thanks for it. It was first kept on April 29, the birthday of Emperor Showa, for his love of plants, and moved to May 4 in 2007.

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.

Comes from Halley's Comet. Best from the Southern Hemisphere, in the hours before dawn.

Between the two 4° marks the Moon is clear of haze and most of what stands on the horizon.
