Im glad a few pieces survived. Now I have to hope there arent any clouds when it gets close enough to see

Real shame it has to be super freezing outside >.<

It doesn't matter if the comet gets closer to us or not, what matters is its distance to the sun. Now it's still to close so we can't see it next to the massively bright sun; in a few months it will be too far away from the sun, fainting back into darkness, but in the next weeks the balance will be just right if the leftover pieces form a proper nucleus again.

Proximity to earth is a very important factor when it comes to how spectacular a comet is though it has no effect on how physically large or how much dust is being released from the nucleus. Look at the differences in Halley's comet the last couple visits with the 1910 encounter being impressive (comet close to earth) vs the 1986 encounter which was distinctly underwhelming (same comet but much further from earth) or the differences between Hale Bopp and Hyakutake. How close a comet gets to the sun is a factor in how impressive the comet can be due to heating and the release of dust and gasses but how impressive it is to an observer on earth depends on how close the comet is to earth.
