If it's clear Saturday evening, take a look in the western sky about 7:30 p.m. 
or so.  The Pleiades will be about a half-degree below the crescent moon, very 
similar to how they appeared one year earlier:

  Binoculars will provide the best view.  For the eastern United States, it 
will actually be an occultation.
