Was it posible for a planet to be viewed by the naked eye to the west on this date?

I'm not positive this wasn't maybe a planet. It was very high in the sky and looked very much like a star. The Blue Angels jet team was in the middle of practicing when we noticed this star very high.

We saw it for about an hour when it disappeared. Nobody actually was watching when it left so we can't say for sure how it departed.

It was probably west of the city at the same height as a star but still visible to the naked eye.
