Pretty cool tonight with no moon. Look towards Orion with a periphial view. Peak will be 1-3am EST.

I didn't know this was going on, and when I took the dog out last night I saw four of them within a minute. Pretty cool.

I saw a few but where I live just too many lights. My buddy who lives outside of Chilicothe said he saw a ton between 2-4.

As you said we saw about a dozen and a half in 30 minutes....mostly near Orion in the SE sky.
