Soo... Comet ISON is coming! According to Under British Skies, the nucleus is 1.5 to 3 km - tiny by comet standards. Currently at mag 14, it will take a large scope to view but should be at small scope visibility by August.
Check out here to see a visualisation of the comet as it tracks into the inner solar system. Fingers crossed for perihelion on the 28th November!
