hazy waning crescent (Toronto)

Didn't observe last night. The Clear Sky Chart showed that it was to clear at 9-ish and then be good for balance of the evening. At 11:45 PM, it was partly clear in the south with clouds moving rapidly and still completely overcast to the north. It was windy, obviously. Chilly.

Awoke at some point in the night, 2 AM or 3 AM perhaps, so to visit the biffy. Peeked outside. Overcast.

Alarm went off at 6:00 AM. To a radio station that I dislike but have yet to tune away from. I started listening to the news report. And was wide awake. Did another walkabout at 7-ish. Installed eyeball corrective lenses.

Spotted a thin crescent Moon, left edge lit, through hazy clouds and black branches. South west south. No sign of Venus over the city.
