If you'd like to have a look see of the skies above you go to this site and have a look a the comet forecast

The site figures out where you are and gives you the appropriate info

That's a great site.

This morning, I plan to get up early and see if Venus and Jupiter can be seen. They are supposed to be in conjunction today, and make a pretty sight.

Right now there is a lot of moisture in the air, and visibility is poor. Will have to see how it looks in the AM.

Nope. Just my eyes and a pair of binoculars.

I dont know your surrounds but ive seen saturn about 10years ago with the naked eye.... i thought it a bit fuzzy, but i realised it was the rings in the centre when my eyes adjusted.we pulled our the telesope and the boys could see the rings quute clearlyand super novas that night to boot. Just being at the right place at the right time. But indeed that UK site helps.
