The only down side is that the peak is forecast to occur around noon on Friday the 14th. This meteor shows takes a day on either side of its peak to fall to half of its intensity. This means that you should look on both the night of the 13th as well as the 14th. Hopefully one of those will be clear. Meteor showers are best seen after midnight when we are hitting them "head on". As with most things astronomical, getting away from cities and other source of light pollution will help a lot.
