I noted that, too Bruce and wondered if that could be the "bow-shock" of the
comet interacting with the solar wind?

Sounds correct Gary.  As the comet approaches the sun, there seems to be
something going off the front at right angles to the direction of travel.
Anyway if oxygen starved, with the extreme temperature, could it cause
something like a small backdraft ?  a firefighters term.
Low band DX is very much controlled by our sun.
