I watched it for 2 1/2 hours after about 11pm. I saw very few at first and then the odd small one. Then I saw a quite bright one and a meteor that went very slowly and was reasonably bright.
All in all they came in patches, nothing for 5-10minutes then 3 close together. Like waves at the beach.
The best one was a very bright fireball around 1am. That was worth it as it was the brightest meteor my wife and myself have ever seen.
I didn't have to travel - just look out from my rear deck. Very comfortable except for the odd mossie! A nice temperature too.
Overall I saw about 30-35 meteors over 2.5 hours.
Greg.
