It looks like a fast moving bright star. Coordinates above are very accurate.

You can sign up for alerts at NASA."

Hopefully the mostly cloudy sky forecast will not spoil this event.

You can also download Ephemeris Data for the Space Station from various sources (agencies) and program it into some GoTo telescopes...

Also keep an eye out for low-orbiting satellites during late dusk.  There are plenty of them visible every night, and you often seen them in the south sky.
