I found Mercury. It is about 10 degrees beneath (West) of Regulus. It is also brighter than Regulus.
I looked at with a scope, but it is in layers of dirty cloud with bad seeing. However, it had some size to it and certainly did not appear starlike with the scope. (Meade ED 127mm F9 at 52x)
For me, it will set behind the nearby mountain at approximately 7pm.
