What quadrant or constellation will they be radiating from? I don't know if I should sit out front (facing south or east) or out back, facing north or west.
Thanks!

It said it will be best viewed in Arabia. That mean it's already over? Or we can't see it over hear anyway?

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Thanks! The illustration that I saw placed Camelopardis sorta between the big dipper and Cassiopeia. Looked like if we watch the area right around the north star we'll see anything that may happen with this display. Seems that predictions range from a complete dud to quite spectacular...

I might try and take a look. This stuff I'm on has had me waking up around 3am and going back to bed at 5am for the last few days.

Nathan, you need to tell your old new boss ( or new old boss) you are recovering,and gaining strength, but it's not cancer or ms.

I went out for about 10 minutes give or take and saw one meteor. Apparently the direction they are supposed to be heaviest in I don't have a good view of because of the trees.

Well, I saw a few... They seemed to travel a bit more slowly, and I was tempted to wake my wife up and ask where our camera was. Obviously, I am still alive, so that didn't happen... I do think that a guy might have got some decent pics if he was handy with a camera... One shooting star right around 12:30 left a visible trail for several seconds...
