ISON is visible to the Naked Eye!!
Just 40min ago before clouds came in again (it snowed here yesterdy evening), I saw ISON with naked eye and adverted vision (good dark sky from Pico Veleta, SQM=21.14 to 20.9 in the zodiacal light).
It is about m1=6.3 to 6.5, estimated from naked eye and binculars (nearly starlike).
I saw it quickly in the Celestron 8, very condensed and hard to make out a structure, but the beginning of the tail does not look (yet) much brighter than the days before.
(I estimated ISON to m1=7.4 yesterday 13.22-Nov and 8.1 on the 12.2-Nov.)
