Now it is very bright as 0.8 mag (Oct. 5, Chris Wyatt). It has a long tail of 10-20 degrees. It will be unobservable soon. But it will be observable again in mid October. J. N. Marcus predicted the comet will brighten up to -4 mag at best on Oct. 9 due to the forward scattering. Hirohisa Sato reported the comet is between -2 and -3 mag in the SOHO LASCO images and STEREO spacecraft images.
