No, we aren't hitting. Universal time as in 5 AM here, 5 AM there, 5 AM in Hawaii.

In other words, the shower is coming in from a constellation. Constellations are fixed....from our standpoint anyway....and as the night moves through the cycle we see the constellation travel across the sky relative to the turn of the Earth in the opposite direction.

So when you see Cassiopeia, for example, in the East I may be seeing it right overhead or slightly West.

Therefore, if I see the Shower at 5 AM EST, you see it at 8 EST.
