Anyone seen Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS?

I looked a few mornings, but then found out that I'd missed the "morning show." It's now giving a night time show, very low in the sky just after sunset. I've had super clear views the past 2 days (apparently, it was brightest on the evening of the 9th, but I wasn't looking in the evening sky until the 10th). I haven't seen squat. It has been dusty which has created lovely reds and oranges for the cloudless sunset. I'm guessing the dust and light is blowing it out for me. It's going to get higher in the sky, but the moon is also getting brighter (but further away). I'll keep looking.

At least I saw Hale-Bopp back in '97, although I was a young guy with other stuff on my mind, and didn't spend much time viewing it.
