It may be called year of the comet as two comets will be visible this year:  one will be in March and the other by April. The comet will be closest to the earth by March 5, closest to the sun by March 10. Panstarrs will be visible in the west besides the crescent moon at sunset.near the horizon. March 11 to 12 will be the best time to check it out.  From thereon it will make its journey northward.  By  May 1st the comet will have dipped its way away from naked eye visibility.

Early today, I saw a CNN video of its appearance as described here at Universe Today.

There will be another comet Ison which will be visible by September

What does the appearance of the comet indicate?

Did you see the comet all ready?
