Well damn. I saw a really bright one around 11:00pm when I left for work. I first dismissed it as just a random meteor but if you say there is a shower I may have to go outside more tonight. Too bad it's freakin' freezing!

I just happened to see one as I was walking to my car at around midnight.

Didn't even know it was supposed to happen, it was pretty sweet.

look up your location on mapquest or google maps, top of the screen is approximately north, and you'll know which street/landmark direction to look at while you're freezin your ass off.

Maybe if I had a scarf and another layer but 19 degrees is getting to me. Sucks to miss such a potentially nice shower though.
