I still haven't seen it
 
Saw it just now. Had to pile the wife into the car and drive her down the road to the neighbors hay field entrance where we parked on the grass and got out where we could see the sky in that direction. We have huge trees in our way in the yard. So, yeah, saw it clearly. Smudge of white tail like a brush stroke with a light in front heading down and towards the west below the big dipper. Very cool, my first comet. I'll be here to check it out again in 6800 years..lol!
 
Took a couple of shots this evening. Was hoping to do some storm photos, but this was pretty good!

Tried last night. Too cloudy.

Is it closer the farther North you are?
Since it will be about 164 million miles away from here at its closest point I don't think where you stand on Earth will make much difference to its size!
I've seen it twice in the last week....but its been just a bit too hazy each time to get a sharp pic.
 
I saw it from 6000 feet up in the Sierras on Sat nite. Beautiful. I remember watching Haley's comet from the valley floor in Yosemite when it passed by in the 90's. THAT was spectacular! This one is pretty cool too but not as bright.
 
I too saw it last night. Had to use binoculars to confirm it was the comet and not a faint star. I was surprised that it was so faint as pervious ones I had seen were clearly visible.
