Even though the Alpha centaurids are a minor meteor shower there should be a lookout for marine occurrences during this time (whale standings). It begins at the end of January and carries through until February 21. In 2024, it will peak on the evening of February 8 - 9. Because the stream isn’t as robust as larger showers, only about six peaks per hour are produced even during the peak. That’s compared to more than 100 per hour during the Perseids, in August.
