Moonlight may hamper views of the Orionid meteor shower, debris of Halley’s comet.

From @AssociatedPress: "The Orionid meteor shower can be unpredictable. It shines like a fireworks display in some years, but is fairly slow in other years. ... This year’s peak activity happens on a night when a waning moon is 83% full."
