Denistone Park isn't particularly close to home but I don't know anywhere better in my area. However I made the trek there again. The crowd was bigger than last night and you could feel the excitement!
The view was definitely better tonight - well worth the trip.
Although it first looked like the clouds and haze were going to be worse, above the haze was a large area of nice clear sky with a few clouds higher up. The comet appeared from higher in the sky than last night - just below the high clouds with the tail streaming up, so we had a good 30 minutes clear viewing. It was easy to see the comet and the tail with the naked eye - even better with binoculars of course. It finally plunged into the dark grey murk just before 8.55.
I MAY consider going again tomorrow night, but I wish I could find somewhere closer.
