To those who live in places with dark skies to the west, there is a comet visible for the next few nights. Barely visible to the naked eye, easy to find with binoculars, and to those who own a telescope (you know who you are) it should be pretty spectacular. From here in town in Davis, using binoculars, I can only see the head, but I have lots of light polution in that direction. It is a lovely green color.  At 8:00PM it was almost due west, about 30-45 degrees above the horizon.
