Where are the best places in Scotland to see meteor showers?

Question

A key part of the answer must address which part of Scotland receives less cloud.

Answer 1

Climate temperate; moderated by prevailing southwest winds over the North Atlantic Current; more than one-half of the days are overcast.

So I would expect somewhere not far from the North-East Coast in the Rain-Shadow of the mountains and with no towns or main roads nearby to pollute the sky with their horrid streetlights.

If you have a particular shower in mind then
http://stardate.org/nightsky/meteors/
has some good info on when showers occur (prevailing weather conditions in October may be different from the rest of the year for example - you might want to go to Leith) and you can find the best viewing angle w.r.t. light pollution by finding which direction to look in

Answer 2

Aviemore and Buckie..

I've seen the Leonids in 1998 from the Buckie coastline, and the Perseid meteor shower from Aviemore circa 2003

Answer 3

Glasgow airport.

Then get on a flight to a nice desert location and wait for it to go dark.
