Should see some as soon as it's dark, if the sky is clear and dark enough -- city lights make it harder to see them. The moon won't be a factor until pretty late, too, since it doesn't rise till almost 11 PM.

Debris trail of a comet, yes. The Perseid meteors come from comet Swift-Tuttle.

Uh, excuse me!
It was still quite a show!
Some of them looked like explosions, some streaked across the sky with tails!
My kids loved it. Makes quite a show!
