Got lucky with a clear night.

    Are you in a very dark place? Might go hunting this evening as I didn’t think it would be visible to the naked eye.

    edit: Found a superb tracker here. You can stick in your location and time and it tells you where to look:

      I live between a city and a suburb, shielded from a lot of the light by hills, there’s still quite a bit of glare behind my back but no lights towards the western horizon, which is where the comet just happens to be.

      You can just see it by eye in the burbs, if you can get a a little bit outside of town it should be easy to spot.

        I’m rural but the city is directly west, between me and comet. You can sort of see the glare in the photo. Definitely not naked eye visible where I was.
