Hm, it could be Sirius, the brightest star. Could you see the constellation of Orion above it ? If you do, then it's confirmed.

If ya really want to learn constellations go get a star chart or smt. For me every clear sky is an opp. to see new stuff.

Well as seasoned astronomers do I think most of the guys here step out of their house, and the first thing they do is to look at the weather? :?:
