Look north-east now, overhead later in the evening.

I've already spotted four without trying too hard, and one of them was really good (bright, lasted a long time & looked like it was sputtering/sparkling as it went).

The peak is supposed to be around 4 AM EST, I think. Just before dawn.

EDIT: apparently best viewed in the northern hemisphere. With apologies to Aussie & Kiwi members (& others)!
