SpaceGeek - the Leonids this year peak with a bright moon interfering with successful observations on the morning of the 18th local time being the best day perhaps - a visual count of maybe around 10 or less per hour we could expect from our southern latitudes. The Leonids are fading in comparison to the other major showers - we find the Geminids in December the best shower to view for regular action these days - but even they are affected by the moon this year - unless you wait till very early morning maybe. The Geminids are best when the radiant is at its highest in the sky from your location of course.
