That makes me feel a little better. I awoke with a massively
splitting headache a 03:00 and laid in bed until 04:00 hoping it
would go away. I then got up, looked outside at the sky, which was
completely overcast, not even any real sign of the Moon and then went
back to bed for an hour. It was still cloudy and I finally fell back
to sleep not waking up until it was light and quite cloud free. I
was going to head to a place on the escarpment with a good eastern
view, but the darn headache stopped me from driving out at
04:00. When I got up and it was clear, I was most annoyed. In my
state, I would more likely have driven off the road than observe a
comet anyway. So you not seeing anything in good health makes me
feel like I did not need to be too upset about not going out this morning.
This comet had better put on a show post perihelion...
Clear skies!
