Later in the week will be better for meteor watching as the 28th to 30th is the peaks of the Pisces Austrinids, Southern delta Aquarids and Alpha Capricornids. None of these showers have high ZHR but combined, should see up to 25 an hour, if you can see the whole sky at the same time.
As is always the case with meteors, after the moon sets and after midnight is the best time to observe. Hopefully, Sat night will be clear and can get out in the field with some fellow club members for an observing / imaging session .
