UPDATED:
Potential Naked Eye comet for Christmas 2021!
A new comet on the possible comet confirmation page labelled C4AGJ62 is showing promise for naked eye visibility during December 2021.
Initially a northern hemisphere object, it will be 0.23AU from Earth on Dec 12 2021 and at high phase angle +150 degrees. The comet heads southwards after this and has an exceptionally close encounter with Venus on Dec 18 at 4 million kms!!
Perihelion occurs on Jan 3 2022 at 0.61AU.
The comet will be best seen from southern hemisphere evening skies during late December 2021.
