Venus, Mercury, Mars and Saturn all visible now (6AM local)

In the eastern sky in a cluster. Locate Venus, looks like an airplane landing light low in the east, Mercury is more faint to the lower right. Mars is a little further off, directly to the right of Venus with Saturn directly to the lower right of Mars. Saturn is faint but can be seen clearly with binoculars.

Mars and Mercury are both reddish compared to Venus.

Enjoy!

And we had snow yesterday for the whole morning. Never got over +35F but to day it's going to be in the 60s and it's super clear (+28F) right now.

I like to watch the sky and early mornings are usually worth it when it's not overcast.
