We'll try again in March! Sorry.
But tonight for those sort of near Monrovia, There is an ISS pass
beginning at 6:40 p.m. Pacific Time:
Sat Feb 05 6:40 PM, Visible: 6 min, Max Height: 46°, Appears: 10° above
WNW, Disappears: 13° above SSE
Just step out and start looking with your eyes WNW. At its peak 46°
above the horizon, which is about halfway to the zenith (overhead). Then
sinks toward the SSE.
If you are not sure if you are sort of near Monrovia CA (a couple
hundred mile radius) check out or sign up for customized *alert* from
