Nights will be warmer through the week, but there are still few planets to spot.
Planets are hiding beneath the horizon and the moon will be growing all week, but temperatures will be much nicer if you do want to spot Mars.

Spotting planets will be hard this week with overcast skies and frigid temperatures.
Planets are hiding below the horizon this week while the moon will shine brightly in the night sky.
Planets closest to earth will be easy to spot in the early evening. Expect nights to be lit up by the growing moon this week.
Clouds and colder temperatures will make it harder to spot features in the night sky. If you can see through the clouds, Mercury is visible again for the first time in weeks.
