I remember Comet Kohoutek. What a letdown that was. I was 11 years old and in sixth grade. Dubbed "The Christmas Comet", it was to outstrip the brightness of even Comet Hailey from earlier that century.

I saw Comet Kohoutek pretty clearly without a telescope or binoculars in the early dawn sky in 1973. I was 23 at the time and was in Death Valley with non-polluted clear skies.

Getting reports from Dallas that the clouds are clearing there. Maybe Al Roker will get the last laugh.

Nice! That seems like much better spot to see a comet.

I was dealing with the city lights of Boston in those days.
