Does anyone see any meteors right now?

I want to go up on our roof and look for meteors but, it's cold and windy and I'm feeling lazy. I live in a city (San Francisco) and the city lights may be too bright and with the cold and wind, I'm not sure that it will be worth the effort. But, tell me, are you seeing any meteors right now? Should I bundle up and get my husband to go up on our roof with me? I was so disappointed that during Capricornids shower at the end of July we didn't see a single one. Shooting stars, anyone?? Please tell me where you are, too. Thanks.

Update:

Woo! We just went up to the roof and saw 5 shooting stars in 15 minutes! I am glad that we went -- but also glad to be in and going to bed now. Thanks so much for your answers!!

    I'm in Duluth, MN; saw a couple a little while ago but I don't know if they were part of the Perseid's or not. That was about 11:15pm here, so 9:15 your time. I'd wait until later, when the sun is completely gone and there's less traffic. Even in this area it's neat to drive 10 to 15 miles south of town where there's less glow from city lights.
