I stayed out to about 11:30 and saw quite a few including several very
bright and long trails despite haze and the moon .  Those that made a
night of it said it was the best meteor shower they had ever seen but it
wasn't a storm.  There were several trails a minute but most were faint
and were not really easily seen until the moon went down (02:00). Wish I
could have stuck with it.
