Default Total Lunar Eclipse Tonight

Tonight's lunar eclipse runs from 12:53 a.m. EDT (0453 GMT) to about 6 a.m. EDT (1000 GMT). So lay in some libations, crank up some tunes, and wait for totality. It's really beautiful, and I hope you have some clear weather tonight.
Tom

Fortunately the clouds passed through earlier this evening. We should have a pretty good look.

Caught it at 2 am this morning - I was a bit underwhelmed.

I was reading, but would go out every 15-20 mins or so to check the progress. My fav view was when there was a sliver of the moon left. The rest of the moon was in a red shadow, which stood in stark contrast to the white sliver. Not sue I'll watch the other three, but it was fun.
