Details:
After the 2nd outburst in August I was able to follow the comet many nights in August (see first image for composite). The the moon entered the seen. Finally, the moon has exited the scene and the comet is much higher in the sky during the early morning hours. Here 220P my first session this month shows a 11.7 magnitude comet with a 2.13 degree tail just crossing the Tau- Cet boundary. Taurus is rich in dust and gas.
