Total lunar eclipse tonight.

[JeffH]

A total lunar eclipse will be visible from anywhere in Australia tonight but....Bad weather may rain on unusual Easter eclipse. The link also includes viewing times.

Best bet for clear sky is Adelaide.

The moon sets here in Chicago before the eclipse is total. West of the Mississippi river it's total for all of 4 minutes 43 seconds although the full event takes 3 hours 29 minutes to complete.

it is my son's 25th birthday today
nice full moon tonight as it was on the night he was born

about every 11 or so years his birthday times with Easter

we have heaps of cloud here tonight
and apparently this eclipse is ok to look at with the naked eye and/or binoculars

[JeffH]

Lunar eclipse is fine to view directly (if cloud clears). Will be a nice "blood moon" this one.

Just this moment stepped outside at 2118 hours and the bottom right has just started to change colour.
