Halley's Comet should be visible this winter until April or May 1986.
For the latest up-to-the-minute information on Halley's Comet
one may call (long-distance for most) the National Bureau of Standards/
Naval Observatory computer bulletin board (300/1200 baud, even parity) at
  (202) 653-1079  (Washington, DC)

The bulletin board contains press releases and is open to the public.
