Saw it this morning through broken cloud over the ocean on Sydney's northern beaches. Quite bright although the head was still below the horizon. The clouds shut the show down but worth getting up for. From what I recall the tail is brighter and longer than Halley was in its early morning shows. The tail was at least 30 deg long with some more of it yet to rise. I think I'll have another try tonight although it may be easy to mistake the comet tail for Santa's contrail.
