21F / 5C here. I am not going outside.

I wouldn't go outside at 50 so I have to agree with you

It's hard to see if the skies are clear while sitting on a nice, warm couch, watching football and listening to the big dog snore.

Solid, low clouds. Only way I can see it is online.

I had forgotten, so thanks for reminding!

bit of a thin spot approaching, it could be my chance to actually see it.

But even if I don't, doesn't change the power of the situation. I'll still be meditating through part of it.

For the last two days we have had snow then a day of freezing rain.

It is 6 degrees now and by morning it will be -15 with the wind chill. I will go out and see it.

I can see the moon through several windows!

Turning red here; very high in the sky.

Neat being able to watch it through my doorwall from inside on this 0 degree night.

Saw it go full blood, then begin to lighten. Very nearly at zenith in the sky here.

Watched it using a mirror at a window so I wouldn't have to go out in the cold.

I had to lay down on my dining room floor to see it when it got to full eclipse, but I did get to see it go reddish and then start to lighten.

It's now -2 degree.

Supposed to be snowing though so probably won’t see much.

28 degrees & clear in metro Atlanta. My daughter the future astronomer is excited!

The dog ran in and out to stay warm.

Life is super super good.

Just got over a cold, and for anyone who remembers a previous story, this evening was something of a miracle.

Kid got some great shots of the red moon.

something from the car and the moon is absolutely gorgeous.
Enjoy the view.

yesterday the moon was out, before the sunset

I hope if we are getting raptured tonight, they let me take Wray and his Nephew with me..

I'll have to see if it's available around here.

Had a glass of white wine as well

of my car. It was almost like I could reach up and touch it.

It looks so close

Took some good pix of the last one at the end of July. Our next opportunity is three-quarters partial eclipse this coming July.

You have some great tennis for now. This one should be spectacular

I'm along the coast and it's cloudy here already.

We'll enjoy it for you all

I hope all that can see it enjoy it for those of us who can't.

and there will be lots of pics

Thanks!

That seem to want to hang out here with me

not showing the real beauty of the moon. Dang it. The eclipse part starts I. About an hour or so.

https://www.timeanddate.com/live/ Here’s a good site to watch it.

My phone camera is just awful.

The pics I took look like they're from an alien telescope in a different galaxy. Grainy with scattered beams.

But really effin cold...about 3 deg F.

I’ll pop out and watch it here and there.

This will be the 3rd one I have watched...2008, 2015 and now 2019.

I’m more focused on the November 11th Transit of Mercury. That one will be the last until 2032.

Damn!

Thanks for the info on Mercury in November.

While I lived in the mountains, I would go out and take pictures at -10F! And I didn't even zip up my coat. I only went in when the camera got too cold!

The clarity at those temps is amazing but you have to be able to stick the camera in your armpit inside your coat between shots.

Once it reaches fifty, I avoid my Miami sister's backyard. Clarity will have to wait.

I'm that way with the heat, can't handle outdoor temps higher than +75F. I start to wilt after that, so I live north of the 45th parallel.

One year way back when I visited them in October when one of the boys was born. I went to the beach with his sister - she headed for the water in a bikini - I had on a coat. He loves the cold.

You will need a decent telescope and a good solar filter to see it. It’s small...lol.

I viewed it in May 2016. It’s an ok substitute for a Venus Transit.

It's a perfect sky for this event. I'm a pretty intrepid person, so I'll go out on my deck to see it. Right now it's 3o.

but it is still too cold to stand around. It doesn't start where I am in Canada for another hour+ and the temp is already -15F with a wind chill of -49F. It is warmer than last night which hit -40F but I still don't want to play. Fortunately, I can see most of the lead up to the total eclipse through the window. I still have to go out a couple of times tonight so I can catch a quick look at the whole sky then.

that faces east, and looked out the window and there was the moon. All I have to do is look out the window to view the eclipse....Don't know what else to say.

weather might have some say in if we venture out or not........5 - 8 inches of snow being forecast....might change, but 5 - 8 so far.

Wolf moon. What a night

I hve to wait now go see pictures here it is visible.

in about an hour.

Thin high clouds. You can see the moon through them, but it is a little blurred. There is some expectation that the clouds will abate.

The gotcha is the 15 MPH wind with 25 MPH gusts. The wind chill is 15F and predicted to be 5 at the maximum shadow.

Hoping for the best. Right now I can see everything from my front porch. At this point the clouds seem kind of wispy and tomorrow is supposed to be cold and dry. Might catch a break.

Fuck...

should be quite the celestial show ..

...here in South-Central PA; I'll wait until about 10 EST to check it out. We do have crystal clear skies. I'll be bundling up!

Perfectly round...

Eclipse not yet started.

Full eclipse

9:15p and the moon is playing peek-a-boo thru the clouds... I'll check back at 10 and see what's shaking.
I can't deal with the cold either. My Fla Pop's said once you live "down here" you blood get's thin and the cold gets to you....... I think it's an old wife's tale but I don't like the cold!!!!
YMMV, works for me...
m

Bella luna! It starts entering the eclipse stage in a few minutes down here, and totality of eclipse is at 11:12pm CST, timeanddate.com says. It's supposed to be high in the sky at its totality. Bella luna!


?auto=webp&width=554

about -15 outside... just starting, will make short periodic trips to the back porch to view...

Slowly the shadow of it will appear. When the moon hits the umbra, then it gets good.

But then, Ive been observing the sky for 60 years. The effect of media on perception is amazing.

It is currently just below a long, thin line of a cloud.
I’ll keep popping out to see the transition. Here’s hoping the clouds continue cooperating!

will be total in about an hour.

Sid

We're getting glimpses as the clouds move by.

but we don't even get a glimpse.

It's 10:50 PM in Michigan and perfect viewing conditions! In another half hour it should be total.

Edit: Awesome to think about the human made robots and data collectors scattered on that thing.

Thanks. Love the music.

Mark you calendars...lol.

It's so bright, I could read a newspaper outside now.

Thanks again for the reminder malaise!

Past my bedtime -- I've seen the super blood wolf moon.

Hope everyone reverts to human tomorrow.

and ate some snacks. It is truly magnificent.
Not one person brought phone or mentioned the Con

It is in full eclipse, here in Michigan. Stunningly beautiful, for sure!

Now it's time to thaw and go to bed.

Coldest night yet, but worth it for the viewing.

Very nice view...better than sept 2015.

Unfortunately it's kind of hazy here so I couldn't see the red color all that clearly. And it's damn cold.

Came inside at full eclipse - lovely red moon

And damn cold outside, too.

It is pouring wet heavy snow here in western Montana. We sat outside in the hot tub hoping for a break in the weather but it didn’t happen. The sky did get a rosy glow but the moon never showed herself. Still a nice night to sit outside and watch the snow fall but no eclipse for us.

That’s the next one

skies were crystal clear and 39 degrees here in Washington State, it got half way done and my back began to pain me so I had to go in.

Hope your back stops hurting

Thanks

It was amazing

We were talking about some of the old superstitions associated with natural phenomena. It was fun since many of the group are from different parts of the planet.

(just outside of my front door) to look overhead in the 15F air (wishing it was 15C ) to look at it just as the eclipse was starting (~11:41 pm ET) through to its max at ~12:12 am ET, and until about 10 minutes after (going in and out to warm up). We had a few clouds but there were enough breaks to really see it.

At the beginning, it looked almost like an orange "smudge" on the bottom left side of the moon before the whole thing turned completely orange/red.

but as much as I could bear with a sweat jacket.

It was pretty decent. Most of the time we always have bad weather when these things happen so this was a rare opportunity!

It even inspired me to put on my American Werewolf in London dvd.
