For what it's worth, here's an observation I made of the comet back in May, when it was above my horizon!
Located just over 2° from ε Boo at the time of the observation, it was washed out in the twilight. The head was fairly large and round. It grew gradually and then sharply brighter towards the centre. A twinkly stellar nucleus was occasionally visible. There was a persistent suggestion of a tail, long and thin, heading away from the head towards the south-east.
Cheers,
Patrick
