Look to the sky in the Northwest... In the UK though, it might be obscured by the light of the moon.
Should be between 10 and 15 an hour in your area from about 3am onwards.

Unfortunately you wouldn't see any unless you go to a very dark place like the countryside. It isn't really all that great shakes, there's meteor showers alla time and you're lucky if you see more than 3 a minute. And they are visible for about a week, tonight's just the peak. Good luck if you do go to see them!

It's supposed to happen around midnight. Try getting away from the city and to the country side where it's darker and has less city lights.

whenever the heavens give us a firework display it is always cloudy. I tried but couldn't see anything. i doubt you would see much in London anyway cos of the pollution and so many street lights etc etc....

We see them every September - they are wonderful - come to Scotland, far away from light pollution, and you will see them every clear night.
