nicely, ..., suitable now it relatively is interior the constellation Andromeda (purely to the spectacular of M34 on June ninth) and could quickly be coming into the Constellation Perseus. checkout the hyperlink below for a finder chart on Comet McNaught, No this comet is C/2009 R1. So it relatively is a distinct comet.

Sun sets at 4:48, look then, very close to the Sun.
If Manhattan is in front of the Sun the the comet might be blocked by a skyscraper!
Last chance.

Tonight is probably the last possible night before it's too close to the Sun, and it will be difficult.
At around 5:10 PM, look to the right and down from Venus.
It will be very low, very close to setting.
You'll need a clear view of the western horizon, and probably binoculars.

This will be your last night without equipment to block out the sun.
After it's been around the sun, it will only be visible in the southern hemisphere
