Yep, I missed the Venus Transit of the Sun back in 2014 because of clouds.

I'm more of a night owl than an early bird. I'd rather stay up until 2am than wake up at 6am. But this morning, I woke up and decided to get up. When I got downstairs and it was still pitch black outside, I realized this might be my chance to see it. The past two days have been really clear skies, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity.

I was wrong. There's a high thin layer of clouds, thin, but certainly too thick to see a comet. I think we're supposed to be cloudy and rainy for most of the next week now. This is probably going to be one that I'll miss.
