I suppose my question should be simplified by saying "will we see anything by the time it is dark enough to view or will it be all over by then?"

Ken,
I think it will take several hours after impact before there is a cloud of debris created that is large enough to reflect light back to earth of any noticable difference. I may be wrong but I wouldn't think the impact would be large enough for us to view from here with the comet being about 90 million miles away.
