..it cleared. Moon is just spectacular! I'm going outside right now to view Saturn--strange..just don't know how I missed it Yet, have to say moon is extremely bright..was astounded by its brightness tonight.

[UPDATE: just came in-could see Saturn. Jupiter wasn't clear to the naked eye, perhaps a telescope, binoculars at minimum was needed. Again thanks! I really appreciated your post--would have missed this awesome night sky. ]

PS. Your photos are great. Thank you so much for sharing.
