    Too much light pollution here. I can see the Big Dipper, but I can barely see #Neowise, and only by looking elsewhere and letting peripheral vision grab that area.

      I was able to find it with binoculars (or field glasses; these don’t have the shape that real binoculars do). But even then the light pollution reduced the contrast. My mom came out and saw it also, the showed me the Summer Triangle and Jupiter & I believe Saturn ????. (Naked eye, so no rings visible.)

      Used https://www.space.com/comet-neowise-visibility-july-2020.html to help me know where to look. Most of the Ursa Major stars were hard to pick out, but if you can find the tail ( Big Dipper), look between there and the Western horizon
