Cloudy weather.
Guess I have to wake up very early on Monday morning to catch it if there is good weather.

Its P3/P4 solar array has been deployed so I guess it will be a little brighter now...

Like Yang Beng, my C5 was set up and ready but the clouds spoilt the show.

It is now reported with the new P3/P4 solar array, the ISS brightness would be very close to venus, so I guess it can be very bright and easy to spot if its above horizon on a cloudless sky (dream on!).
