the clouds are blocking mars right now but i saw it laying in my yard. it almost looks like a big star but if you squint your eyes you can see a redish tint to it. it is east right now right around where u were looking for the meteors

Saturday night/Sunday morning was pretty clear...though I only saw like 10 or so, and I'm not sure if it was worth freezing at the beach, getten bitten by various creepy-crawlies, and having my whole weekend sleep schedule thrown off, lol.
