Yes, certainly dimmer than it has been. Nice view in the refractor and even the finder and the clouds stayed away but like I say the comet has faded. patrick Sent from my iPad On Mar 19, 2013, at 20:51, Chuck Hards <chuck.hards@gmail.com> wrote:
I lucked out this time. Right at sunset, the west cleared-off completely from my house in Granger. I've had pristine views.
The comet is noticeably dimmer than it was a week ago, but slightly higher in a darker sky, so that's some compensation. I can't quite be sure of seeing it naked-eye anymore, as I could last week.
It will be interesting to see what it looks like in three, four days, when the approaching weather system has moved out again.

I started to drive out to SPOC but turned around because of those darned clouds. My son says they are bad at Antelope Island too.
