How to see it
Best time for meteors: after midnight until dawn, when the radiant is high. Look about halfway up the sky, away from city lights. Go somewhere dark in the hours before dawn, lie back and look at the whole sky, not at the radiant. Give your eyes 20 minutes to adapt and don’t look at your phone. The peak is short — only a few hours — so the exact night matters. The Moon is almost out of the way — a good year.
