Guys, I hate to break it to you, but it's currently Wednesday, August 13.

I didn't get a chance to go look for myself, but methinks you are about 24 hours too late.

Monday night becomes Tuesday morning at 12:01 AM.
 
True, but Wednesday was the peak. The actual viewing goes on for days before and after, at decreased frequencies.
 
Monday morning at 1:45 AM I was outside and saw 3 meteors within 15 seconds. The usual was about one a minute for the night/morning...
