日本aerith网站预报：
It had not been observed for a long time since June. In October, after it appeared again in the morning sky, it brightened very rapidly from 13 mag up to 10 mag. Now it is 9.1 mag (Nov. 26, Juan Jose Gonzalez). It will be at opposition in December and it is coming closer to the earth. So it will keep visible visually at 9-10 mag for a while until December. Bright and large, but weakly condensed. It keeps observable in excellent condition in the Northern Hemisphere. It will fade out rapidly after January.

不容易观测呀！月亮的影响太大了！ :roll:

月底亮度还在9.5等左右，月光干扰消失

能否提供预报星图，如果目视观测不行，可以尝试摄影观测。

上面有星历表啊

更新skymap的彗星数据就可以看到了
