incoming comets?

[joncrawf]

Hi All 

I wonder if we can expect any comets to make an appearance in our skies over the coming months? Does anyone publish a list of known comets and the times they are likely to appear? I'm particularly interested in comets that are likely to be visible in modest amateur kit (such as my SW200p).

many thanks

Heavens Above maintains a list of bright comets:

You will need to indicate your location to get the position and times right.

Cheers and good luck!
