TEXAS – If you're up for a stellar treat this weekend, we've got a double-whammy to look at and the forecast looks cold but clear.
In addition to the annual peak of the Geminid meteor shower, which officially happens on Friday, a little green comet named 46P/Wirtanen will make a close encounter this weekend and you might be able to see both with a naked eye.
The key? You've got to get away from the city to avoid light pollution.
Skygazers say the Hill Country makes a great spot. No matter where you're heading, make sure to bundle up and take plenty of warmth. Hot chocolate and a sleeping bag sound nice!
Or you might opt to make it a social event.
Friday night, the LCRA will host a star party at McKinney Roughs park in Cedar Creek. That's out near Lost Pines in Bastrop County.
