When I was setting up around 10:00 PM MST I saw two long blue ones streak over almost the entire length of the sky. That got a fire under me! After midnight I had a problem with mist and thin clouds. Most of the time though I could see some spot in the sky that was fairly dark. I was still seeing several a minute until around 5:30AM.
I wouldn't call my viewing spectacular. If it had been a clear dark night, it certainly would have been.
