Lunar Eclipse Tonight who's staying up or watching
Supposed to be prime viewing here in Alaska if the clouds don't roll in, not sure for the rest of the country. Starts just before 2AM Alaska time and ends around 7AM . First time in 150 years Blue moon (Second full moon in month), Super moon (14% bigger), and Blood moon(will look red due to atmosphere filtering light). Guess only the best will be in the west coast and north.

I'm setting my alarm.

I arrived here at work on the Seattle waterfront a little early at the peak time, about 5:15am, but alas, it was totally overcast, as usual, so no sign of the moon.

Too low on the horizon for me by the time I made it out (blocked by trees) but a friend in Idaho sent this photo he took on the way to work.

Didn't get a picture, but driving back to Victoria TX from a day trip to San Antonio we got to witness the Blood Moon and it was truly one of the most beautiful things I've seen. Barely a cloud in the sky. You would have sworn you could see the craters.
