Apparently the peak is Wednesday night, but there is a moon and peaks only around 20 meteors an hour due to the low position of the radiant.

Looks like were have a decent view for once with clear skies forecast until late in the night.

Will, you're quite lucky to see one away from the day of the maximum! It's bitter out tonight, but will have a look, the door to my flat faces rising Orion, and my flat hides the moon.

I've only managed 'background' metors whilst trying to spy Hartley2. I may have seen quite a good one from the right direction but it was over 3 days ago so I'm not convinced (burned for 1/4 of the sky!).

Nice and clear here for once at the moment, will be looking out later.
