Howdy all;
From the RV park in Congress the comet was pretty easily seen in my 8X42
binoculars. The sky was fuzzy and so was the comet;-)
I estimated its brightness at magnitude 5 and size at 30 arcminutes. The
tail was not seen, but the comet was elongated about 1.8X1, so that might
be some of the tail starting to show itself on a poor night.
Clear skies;
Steve Coe
