Orion is just visible climbing over the southern horizon. Sirius is not, it's below the horizon. Anyway, Orion is always standing up tall at this latitude in winter. A dominant constellation.

Well, yeah, but you're at a NORTH northern latitude! ;-D

I ran my Starry Night program at a Fairbanks latitude (sure love that software). Sirius will be up (barely) in about a half-hour.
