Moon and low hanging clouds rolled in, guess I won't be staying up late tonight.

I know it's a bit late, but the moon set around 4:15 this morning (3:30 yesterday), which left a very short window for observation. Tonight (tomorrow morning) the moon sets at 6:00 AM, so no joy.

Same here, full moon was bright.  No chance we could have seen anything put that.

Disagree. The moon being up doesn't prevent seeing stars.
