It's 6:19 AM EST and looking out of my window on the 18th floor I see a bright star to the right of the CN Tower. My location is near Dufferin and Bloor. It has been shining since 4 AM but since the sun is rising and its dawn you can REALLY see it now.
If you happen to read this hours after my post and the star is no longer visible you can see it again tomorrow night at the same spot I mentioned from 4 AM but I recommend seeing it at 6 AM which would be the best time.
I've noticed this for months now and it keep getting brighter every time. During the night its clearly the most obvious star in the night sky and it eventually becomes the only one you can see easily without 'trying' to find the other stars.
I'ts still shining bright. Any input? I heard this could be Venus, but Venus supposedly doesn't twinkle in the night sky. This star is clearly twinkling in the sky.
Your input please.
EDIT:
Just checked again. It's 6:27 and its more light then dark outside but the thing is just as bright as it was an hour ago. Also, since I haven't mentioned, this is the EASTERN sky. Im looking towards the CN tower from Dufferin St.
