Apparently Comet ISON is now visible to the naked eye in the E-SE 1 hr before dawn.

Apparently my eye still has some clothes on it. I couldn't see ISON. I'll have to adjust. Sorry, I just couldn't resist.

Thank you for the reminder. If we are favored with clear skies here in Yakima, WA. I do have a place nearby with very little ambient (?) light.
