Rumor has it tonight is the best time to see it. Any truth to this cause I have yet to see any http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif

I thought it was the 13th. I saw about 6-7 that night.
Tonight is the night.
Been pretty good viewing for the last week or so, but today is the peak.
Partly cloudy up here, so we may not get much of a show.
After sunset, face generally east and look halfway up. Looking east before moonset also places the Moon behind you. Once the Moon sets, move your gaze to straight overhead.
