9:30 PM. Just went outside and saw Scorpius with he head toward West and the tail East. Jupiter quite close, north of, a bit further north the waxing gibbous moon, so Scorpius not as clear as without the moon, but it was there!!!
Cold, and I get a bit dizzy these days, in the cold and looking up, but I had a garden chair near and sat on it.

Long time since I have bothered, but apart from the moon it was a clear sky and no wind. It has been really cold today.

Happy I saw it!

Happy also to have the easy Starry Night computer program, although I used to make do with the ephemeris (star yearbook).
