I had clear skies last night, although I didnt count the Gemenids and I saw a lot of sporadics. My estimates put it at 30+ an hour although we werent looking at all parts of the skies.
The highlight of the evening was a bright Gemenid which took about 7 seconds to go across the whole sky and it left a long smoky trail from horizon to horizon. I reckon that some of its micriscopic fragments may have made it to Earth.
