Good morning, Aurora.

Aurora stargazers can view the Orionid meteor shower peak tonight into today morning as Halley’s Comet debris burns up to create up to 20 bright meteors with glowing trails—NASA advises watching from dark areas away from city lights for the best view.

Aurora was named among the nation’s safest cities after WalletHub released its Safest Cities in America list for 2025, with the city finishing at No.33 after evaluations on community and financial safety factors—making it the only Illinois city in the top 50.
