Here's what I never understand about these things...right now while I'm posting its 4 Am on the 12th of August. Does that mean right now I should go outside? Or does it mean that I should go outside at 4 AM on Friday night/Saturday morning?
OK, just how big of party-ers are these guys? I don't know the answer to that question, so I'll check right now and then I'll check tomorrow.

Good question. The display goes on for weeks but this evening is stated to be the peak. Here’s another article

I have an observatory in my backyard. One day, I'll have to get a telescope.

I didn't see anything last night. There was some cloud cover but all the major players were visible so I figured the shower would be too. I broke out the binoculars, too. I can't check tonight. I always miss these things.
