Total Lunar eclipse -right now.

[catjac1975]

The clouds are gone-it is as cold out as I can ever remember. The total lunar eclipse is starting right now. I am going to wait a few, bundle up and take a look. I will go out every 20 minutes or so- complete at 12:12.

We just went outside and the shadow is taking a bite out of the moon. Don't know if we'll stay up for the whole thing. Once years ago we went out to some property we owned to watch a total eclipse of the moon. It was cold, we built a small campfire and watched the eclipse. It was so dark! Away from the fire I couldn't see my hand in front of my face.

Man it is moving fast! We just ran out and it is almost halfway!

It will be the fourth time for me to be out.

The moon may disappear here because there is a lot of moisture and it's freezing.

Have fun!

Crystal clear & bitter cold here, 1 degree... but fortunately no wind. Only a sliver of the moon left, should be total in about 15 minutes. We are fortunate to see this one, the last couple eclipses here were obscured by clouds.

We just ran out and looked again.
