What country are you in, or did you watch from the Southern Hemisphere or the Northern? Also in what part of the sky did you look? Do you know if clouds will block the view? I know there are several questions here but they all relate to the same thing?

I went out to look but didn't see anything yet. Here's some info:
http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2006/12dec_geminids.htm
The number of meteors is greater toward sunrise. You would need to find out where the constellation Gemini is since the meteors come from that direction.
The link has a map which is for early AM.
Don't forget there may be auroras tomorrow and Friday night.

Yes we were at our observatory on the rooftop.
Our main telescope has been recording them.
