This story appears without fail fail every year in the press. Usually turns out that it was too cloudy to see them. Even if there's good weather, due to the unpredictable nature of the event, any meteors are few and far between.

Some nice timelapse footage of the 2010 Perseid Meteor shower filmed in California's Eastern Sierra on a Canon 5d Mark II. The shorter streaks lasting about an inch of the screen before fading are meteors and the longer ones that don't fade are most likely aeroplanes. By the way the stars circle, quite a lot of the footage seems to have been filmed looking northwards with the Pole star in roughly the centre of the screen.
Watched best in full screen 720 HD.
