Did anyone spot the Comet Mc Naught

I just remembered after sunset
Anyone spotted it? Can it be spotted in the near future also or was it a one day spectacle

The news items said It can be seen only in the southern most parts of the country. It is supposed to be seen from upper left portion coming to lower left of the Sun. It even said there is a possibility of the comet splitting under sun's gravity.
