We saw that last night, and the night before. Last night we had a completely clear sky, so Venus was bright bright bright. Wednesday night was cloudy, but there was a gap in the clouds at the right moment, and there was the moon, fingernail sliver in the Maxfield Parrish blue sky just before the last light faded, and Venus behind, beside, behind a cloud.

It was worthy of the ephemeral phenomenon alert system, so I called two neighbors and told them to look.
