According to the Weather Channel (I think it was), it should start about 10:01 EST. There won't be another one for 3 years, so I hope I remember to do this. *runs to tie a string around my finger*

In Michigan, I just found out about this, it will start around 8 PM and the full eclipse will be around 10 and end around 11, and then the shadow of the earth will pass over and off the moon and end around 12.

I'll be a lookin'. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/8/8_1_206.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm824MNUS)

I just saw it live - in person. My location: Southern California.

This is the first time that I actually took the time to view a total lunar eclipse for myself!

My wife Lisa and I tried to get a look but the cloud cover here is too thick. We'll just have to watch it on the news and, Lord willing, catch it in another 3 years.

Very cool! Glad you could catch it. I don't think I've said welcome as of yet so...welcome to LAD RR :bigtup:

Awesome! It was cloudy here, so no in-person viewing, but I did check out the website a few times and saw some of it there.

Southern California is beautiful. I lived in San Diego a couple of years about 30 years ago.

Oh, and hello...lol. Sorry, forgot my manners there.

I took the time to view it from time to time here in Michigan also. Very clear skies, and temperature around Zero, made for a good moon gazing night. :medium-smiley-101:
