From 3am to dawn, and if sky is clear, meteor shower should show 60-200 "shooting stars" every hour! Eastern US best viewing this time around.
Yes, really excited about this tonight. Glad too see I'm not the only one interested in this. The news had nothing on it tonight about the show! The weather should be clear here tonight, so perfect for viewing
"Peak activity is due to occur early on Wednesday at about 2:30 a.m. EST (0730 GMT) and favors eastern North America. The Quadrantid meteor shower sky map above shows where to look to see the display"

I got up at 4:15 and looked out and saw nothing. I looked to the northwest and then to the south. Nothing. It was about 15 degrees so I went back inside after 10 minutes. Se Pa.
I saw two at about 11ish last night, before the cloud cover rolled back in.
