Just saw about 20 from Zion national park.
For those asking about when it is, it lasts for days but last night and possibly today are the best times, thats when its at its peak

[QUOTE=FoodStuffs;16663945]i think i saw this shit when i was smokin my breakfast cigarette[/QUOTE] along with your breakfast jack daniels?
That was disappointing, I went out at 3:20, and while I could see stars and shit clearly, I didn't see any meteors :( Guess I live too close to the city.
Fucking New York and its giant buildings.
Goddamn, I saw the biggest fucking meteor I've ever seen. The tip of it was yellowish, leaving a blazing white trail that cut across probably 1/10th of the sky, lasting two seconds and after it dissapeared, I swear it left a goddamn trail of grey where it streaked. I saw about four others, but those were out of the corners of my eyes. I was looking directly at that massive one when it happened! It was probably half an hour ago
Sucks i cant be able to see it... Its cloudy at the night + city lights.. This is the last day today.. 11-13 August [editline]11:05AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Furioso;16664642]Goddamn, I saw the biggest fucking meteor I've ever seen.

Overcast in Holland, couldnt see shit. :(
Fucking light pollution.
I ended up seeing 2 or 3 last night, they were much smaller and shorter than I expected :/
I went out with a couple of friends waaay out in the country we saw about 30 That was the greatest thing I ever saw.
I've seen a few showers before now, and this was the poorest by far. I only saw about 8 and only two of which left a trail. Still beautiful though!
I was outside bathing naked with my girlfriend, when we got up, quite a bit chilly we wrapped our arms around each other. While trying to make us warm we looked up at the beautiful sky, still holding each other. That was when a really nice night became one of the most beautiful and perfect of my life, as the clear night sky showed us a few of it's wonders when a few meteors flew by. I wish it wouldn't have ended, but it was brilliant while it lasted, and I'll forever have the memory. :)
:) it was cloudy tonight where i was, but i saw one through the cloud, must of been a bright one
[QUOTE=VladimirPutin;16640753]Wasn't this last night...[/QUOTE] It's supposed to be both nights
So, anybody take pictures/video or even see any? :D

I saw a few and got to see Jupiter through my telescope.
