Short notice, but I didn't check my sky charts pages til a few minutes ago. but you can see the Perseids meteor shower in the perseus constellaion tonight. Perseus is in the north east sky after midnight, and should be at its peak shower just before morning. Might be able to see bits up to Aug 22.
at its peak you might glance upto 60 meteors an hour. Its one of the best meteor showers to happen often.
for help locating any celetrial object, you can get the free (open source) program Stellarium, its availible for most operating systems, and its just great!
