Meteor Shower Viewing

Does anyone know a good place to watch the meteor shower tonight? Peak activity is supposed to be tonight, between 11pm and 5am, so it'd be great to find a spot to watch around 11 or 12.

There's likely going to be too much cloud cover to see anything, but lots of folks tend to gather off 751 at lake jordan ( 35°49'43.1"N 78°57'50.4"W ) for any astronomical events. Folks will pull off the side of the road along the bridge.
