Last night there was a line of thunderstorms towering above the western horizon, so viewing the conjunction was a no-go.
This evening, after thunderstorms in the afternoon, the sky cleared out with just a few scattered altocumulus. It was fun watching the sequence of planets show up in my 7x50s, first Venus, then Mercury immediately to the lower right of Venus, and then Saturn, directly below the first two, forming a distorted version of Triangulum.
All three fit in the 24X field of my 4.25 RFT. What an incredible sight! Looking forward to tomorrow's <1/10 degree separation between Venus and Mercury!
