Rare clear sky this evening (before the fog came in!). This is a nice looking comet, low in the NNW after twilight.

Very faint broad tail visible 6’ in length in P.A. 85; outer coma very diffuse and faint, inner coma brighter with a tiny starlike central condensation in averted vision during periods of good seeing. Comet altitude 13-degrees. Comparison stars checked using TYC-2 data; Method = M.
