http://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/earthskys-meteor-shower-guide this website should help you, it's this weekend (11th, 12th, 13th) all night and in the morning while the sun is still rising, try to avoid cloud cover and you can watch them all night!

Meteor showers last days, they are not a single event at a specific time.
And they are visible over most of the Earth, not just one location.
The Perseids meteor shower is from July 17 to about Aug 24 - the peak (the night the most meteors will be seen) is Aug 17.

Wow. Okay. It will be all night, from the 12th into the 13th. And look up, not down. That should help.
