I finally got to see the comet last night. We’ve had clouds, clouds, and more clouds for weeks.
I only used binoculars because it was too durn cold and windy to mess with the telescope. But the comet was quite obvious when I got them aimed at the right spot.
I hope the clouds will stay away this evening so I can view Mercury and Venus.

Clouds, you at least have the possibility of them clearing.
I’ve had FOG, FOG, and more FOG. When it’s not foggy, it decides to cloud over and rain.
It clears up beautifully during the late morning, early afternoon.
4PM hits, and *IT* rolls in again!

Same here, took the telescope out but after finding the comet with binoculars, was way too cold and went in.It's supposed to be a tad warmer tonight but they are calling for ice/sleet overnight so it may be too cloudy. Unbelievably clear last night, I should have toughed it out.
