By Jove!

Looks like a snow cloud outside.. Glad to have the precipitation.

Did my run yesterday arvo and kept looking up at the sky. I've been waiting for this moment for so long and there's a great big cloud in front of the moon. An hour went by and I grew despondent. The cloud turned bluer and blacker and thicker. And then, when I was as far from home as possible, there came a break in the clouds, and there it was. A half moon, glowing white in the patch of blue. I took off my sunglasses and looked and saw a tiny spot of light just outside the moon's disk - Jupiter!

I admired it for a few seconds - a planet clearly visible in the daylight sky - and then the clouds closed up again. Over the next hour I got a few more glimpses as the clouds rolled past. The moon slowly drew away, and by the time evening came on there was a finger's width between them.

But for a few minutes, there was that faint spark just off the moon.

Jupiter is there in the sky most every day, of course, and if you know just where to look, it's visible, but it's so much easier if there's a reference point, and the only reference point is the moon.

Venus can also be seen in the day, but Jupiter, Wow!
