     I've had a first look tonight, though it is still rather low
from Arizona.  Brightness is about the same as the end of the
night last night (mv ~2.5).  The halo is somewhat larger but
still of very high surface brightness.  The inner coma/fan region
is somewhat changed, but overall the comet has a similar appearance
to last night.  It is now just barely resolved naked-eye.
