Just a few interesting notes from Today.
Dennis Di Cicco, saw it visually in Daylight on the 7th January using a 5" Televue refractor. Rob McNaught and Gordon Garradd also made visual observations of the comet today at Siding Springs also using a 5" refractor. Gary Kronk has also been following the comet in daylight in addition to Scott Adler and myself. It was cloudy here so no chance, maybe tommorrow.
Current magnitude estimates seem to put the comet at no less than mag -1, but that will like have increased again by the morning!
