You don't really, you can see them any evening, the later the better until at least August 25. Saw 3 tonite already, 2 small, 1 fairly large streak of light.

I was going by the times in the article...
At about 3 a.m. the morning of Aug. 13, face northeast and, if you have clear and dark skies, you can expect to see a couple of dozen Perseid meteors per hour until dawn.
look due east between 4 and 5 a.m. and you?ll see not only the lovely star cluster the Seven Sisters, but parked just to the right of it the 4th planet from the Sun, 4,000-mile-wide Mars.
