Comet NEOWISE

Anyone around BR had any success viewing the comet? I think peak viewing was couple days ago but the chance is still there to see it. Are binoculars a must?

It can be seen here in Alabama, but it's been cloudy during good times to see it. I've seen a few postings online. But you need a good view of the NW sky.

I've seen plenty of good pictures. That is good enough for me.

I live in North Alabama. Have seen it the last few nights. Pretty faint to the naked eye. At 930, find the Big Dipper. Look below it.

I could see it tonight using binoculars. Just a blurry object in the sky, but I don't have a good view if the NW due to trees and some light polution.
I did however use a telescope and see Jupiter (towards the SSE) really well. Could easily see four moons, too.

I would like to see it, but I don’t feel like fighting the mosquitoes.
