That's like 1 day before perihelion. IF the comet survives and IF the comet flares up nicely then you MAY see a long streaming tail in the morning sky.

Bets are on at the moment that it won't survive. Actually, if it flares and doesn't survive you still MAY see a tail in it's death throws. Or not. No one really knows. This comet is unpredictable!
