On 23rd of December there was a radio storm on Jupiter that could be picked up by amateur radio enthusiasts with their ham radios. Here you can listen to what could be heard. Next radio storm on Jupiter is expected to occur on December 30 between 10:00 and 11:00 UT.
So instead of just observing Jupiter visually one might also get started with some planetary radio astronomy in your very own home. To find out how you can visit NASA's Radio JOVE project here.
Now is about the best time for observing Jupiter as it's going to be in opposition on January 5th.
