Bugger, just went for a peak and its 100% cloud cover (1st time in days) and the forecast is for 5 more days the same.

Quote: The strongest and most reliable meteor showers are the Perseids of August and December’s Geminids. Balmy weather and summer vacations have made the Perseids well known and popular, but the Geminids are actually easier to view from mid-northern latitudes. For one thing, nights are much longer in December. And while the Perseids are best viewed before dawn (as most showers are), the Geminids offer excellent viewing starting in mid- to late evening.


According to Sky & Telescope.

I think they forgot to mention that it's much much colder in December!


Just looked and it's still clear here in West Yorkshire.
