the Taurids just peaked on the 12th but are probably still going on as we speak.
also the leonids peak november 17nd (they have a short life and or out for only about 4 days (the peak on the 17nd)
this is a short list, but just remember, we have at least one pop each month and space debris/rocks are always hitting earths atmosphere on a daily bases.

The Leonids peak at 04:00 UT on November 18, or 11 p.m. EST on November 17 (Saturday night). They aren't predicted to put on much of a show this year. The best upcoming shower is the Geminids on December 14.
