All day
Peak: December 22, 1930, around 07:00 UTC — up to about 10 meteors an hour under a dark sky. The Moon will be 5% lit: a dark sky: a good year for the Ursids. Meteors seem to come from Ursa Minor; the debris is from Comet Tuttle. A modest shower near the December solstice, for the Northern Hemisphere. Peak times and rates: the International Meteor Organization's working list.
