It's going to be at it's best over N. America. Check out space.com for details so you can plan ahead.

Not into watching meteor showers?

"No, we'll just grab a sixpack and 2 sleeping bags and we'll watch the meteor shower for a couple of hours. Tell your sorority sisters you'll be back before dawn. You have to go - people only get the chance to watch this like once ever hundred years!"

At least I heard that it works as a good pickup line. Never tried it myself... :)

is was an astro major in kolij - that line works...leonids were great last year - i was seeing several hundred/hour - not the meteor storm of '66, but the best i've ever seen. perseids of the mid '90s had more spectacular individual meteors, but not the numbers the leonids put up
