I don't have clear skies here locally, but perhaps you do…
"As seen from mid-northern latitudes, Leo rises over eastern horizon around 1 a.m. That’s why you’ll see more meteors after midnight. After rising, Leo then swings upward and westward throughout the morning hours after midnight. It climbs to its highest point in the southern sky around 6 a.m."

I was so looking forward to this.... and then the clouds and rain moved in!!
I can see hazy light from Jupiter through the clouds +Lori Seebeck, but not much else. I'll wait a bit longer to see if it clears up, but it's not likely.
Yes, I will keep checking too. Hope it clears for you. It seems every meteor shower this year has been clouded out. :(
Just got back from standing outside my back door. Didn't see anything and the clouds have moved in. :(
The best time is early/pre-dawn on the 17th. So set that alarm my Luna Looney Sister, you may still have a chance to see it.
I will do just that, my Luna Looney Sister. It's half past 1am right now so I still have a couple of hours to catch some winks. Hopefully the clouds are just passing through. :)

Tahoe's clouded over too =/
