Its still hanging around 58 degrees. Just walked the dog for about an hour, through the woods to the beach and didn't need a flashlight to navigate my way around.

Of course, by the time I got my camera all set up it moved behind the trees and I couldn't get a good shot. It was huge!

Full moon rising, Mars just ahead. Venus and Jupiter setting. If the seeing is very good and so are your eyes, Mercury is about 30 degrees ahead of Venus and Saturn rising about 2 hours after the moon.

I am in the NW, so I am hoping to see some color in the sky. Of course, I hope that there is no damage.

Though, I was thrilled to see the amazing moon and Mercury and Venus, thanks for posting about the planets. It seemed to be extra bright in the east, but that could have just been the huge, golden moon. Our sky was slightly cloudy, so no rain or snow. Stay warm
