Comet McNnaught.... I'm in Texas. Where and when can I see it?

comets can be seen during the day, sometimes they are blinded by the sun because the sun has captured it with gravity and the comet is too close to the sun

You may be a bit too far south to get a good view of McNaught. The best time will be about 5 a.m. the next couple of mornings. It will be very low (15° altitude) in the northeast, just above and slightly to the right of the bright star Capella in Auriga. When I saw it a couple of mornings ago, it looked very much like a 5th magnitude star in my 10x50 binoculars -- I wouldn't have been able to identify it without using Starry Night software, and I wouldn't have seen it naked eye.
Good luck!

It should be low in the northeast before dawn visible through binoculars.
