I did some star chart checking for this conjunction of Uranus and the Moon for my location in MD (using Starry Night and Stellarium). Around 10:30-11:30 PM EST, Uranus and the Moon could get as close as about 0.5-degrees apart so easily visible using my 10x50 binoculars and 90-mm refractor telescope. C/2022 E3 (ZTF) is also well placed in northern sky too in Camelopardalis, about 38 degrees elevation. If skies are clear enough, perhaps I will see Uranus, the Moon, and the comet (again)
