Why Are Meteor Showers So Early In The Morning?

It seems that every time there's a meteor shower, it's early AM. Why is this?
"The cosmos has aligned, quite literally, for families, space geeks and insomniacs alike, as the Earth is set to intercept a new meteor shower late Friday into Saturday. The scientists who discovered the cosmic debris say the Camelopardalid shower could be "significant."
Some forecasts show 200 to 1,000 meteors an hour between 2 and 4 a.m. Eastern Time on Saturday."

Darkest time of night = more visibility. Show will usually start around 930 or 10.
