I just took the kids outside to watch the International Space Station fly overhead. It was visible for about five minutes, and at its brightest I thought I could see some details (the solar panels?), but it was mostly just a bright dot. It rose from the southwest, went by almost overhead, and disappeared to the northeast.
I got the tracking information from heavens-above.com.

I actually caught a glimpse from nyc this evening, and saw the fireworks going off over the brooklyn bridge for its 125th anniversary. Quite a night in the skies.
