It varies from year to year. Last year Mars and Jupiter dominated much of the summer sky. Venus frequently makes an appearance.
Venus, Mars, and Jupiter will tend to be brighter than most any star, and of course, their positions change from week to week. Venus drifts back and forth in the western sky at dusk and in the eastern sky at dawn, as it is closer to the sun than we are. Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn all pretty much travel from east to west when they are in the night sky. Actually, also when they are in the day sky--it is just that you can't see them naked eye then.
You CAN see them if you know precisely where to look--I once watched Saturn in my telescope until well after sunrise one morning, when I was up in the mountains.
With the naked eye, on Dec 1 2008: Venus and Jupiter are seeable for several hours after sunset. Venus is the brighter and lower of the 2. Although Jupiter is more than 50x larger than Venus it's a lot farther away.
Rocky planets and gaseous planets.
The sky is divided into three sections: the upper region called the zenith, the middle section known as the meridian, and the lower part called the horizon. These divisions help describe the location of celestial objects in the sky.
Mercury and Venus are the two planets nearer to the sun than the Earth is. They are both bright and easy to see. You just have to know when to look, and where in the sky to look. You also have to know what you are looking at when you see them, because they just look like bright stars.
Jupiter rises about midnight; Mars rises about 2:30 AM. Venus will rise next to the crescent Moon about 3:30 AM. Saturn sets about 10 PM these days; you may be able to see it low in the western sky after sunset. Neptune and Uranus aren't visible to the naked eye, and Mercury is too close to the Sun to be visible this month. I recommend a free program called Stellarium, which will show you the precise locations of all the planets and most of the stars in the night sky.
Because 1) it is a southern sky constellation and 2) it is in the daytime sky in Summer.

In Florida's western night sky, you can typically see Venus and Jupiter. These two planets are bright and easily spotted with the naked eye. Venus is especially prominent due to its brightness, often referred to as the "Evening Star".
Venus and Jupiter will be the only planets visible in the evening sky in November. During November the gap between the two planets will diminish until they are little over 2 degrees apart at the end of the month. Saturn will move a little higher into the morning sky, rising 3 hours before the Sun by November 30. Venus and Jupiter will be the only planets visible in the evening sky in November.

Yes There Will Be A Planet Racer 2, it Will Have Alot More Planets And it Will Be Harder To Get To The King. Planet Racer 2 Will Come Out Around 2009 Summer.
The hottest part of the day in Alabama during summer is typically in the afternoon, between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. This is when the sun is highest in the sky and temperatures are at their peak.
