After two days of overcast conditions the night sky is clear again. The nova that was hard to observe with the unaided eye, has brightened and is now fairly easy to spot from my suburban location.

After scanning the nearby stars with 7x50 bino's, i'd say it is close to Mu1 Crucis in magnitude. So that would place it around Mag 4.0 with no obvious colour visible to my eyes.
