Sky and telescope is reporting that this very nice comet jumped to mag 4.5 in the last couple of days. if you want to find it low in the western evening sky, here's the article:

if i can find it and photo it, i'll post it. but morgantown has LOTS of lights. those of you out in the actual countryside should be able to see it with the nekkid eye.
