Cheers.
Yes absolutely, you should be able to see Andromeda when it's up but you need clear northerly horizons.
Although it's low, it's a beautiful sight and actually surprisingly larger than I expected.
I was able to image it last year from my back yard even though it was only 8 deg above the horizon !
