Have a Merry Christmas over there.

Crystal clear and cold in SW FL. Almost 1:30. Guess I’ll stay up a while. Should start soon. Getting my field glasses.

I looked it up and thought 10:41 to start. Very clear. Clouds gone. Have to run outside to see. Why not? I wasn’t paying attention 456 yrs ago and probably won’t be paying attention 200 years from now. [grin]

Cloudy here in NC, can’t see it.

Just went outside and the moon is at 12 oclock and kicka$$ bright tonight, must be really good atmospherics here.I think the moon is extra bright because the sun is nearly opposite the moon just before the eclipse.

Mountains above Bakersfield have zero visibility tonight, you can’t even tell where the moon would be. All I can see is the distant light pollution of town reflecting in the rain and off the clouds.
Shame, the kids had hoped to see something.

Earlier, the clouds were pretty thin, but they are a lot thicker now. Can only see the moon occasionally through a break in the clouds.

Cloudy here in NC, cant see it.Post #5 says it's clear in northwestern NC. But then clouds can come and go quickly.

I think the moon is extra bright because the sun is nearly opposite the moon just before the eclipse. Makes sense. Think I see a slight hint it may be starting here. Doesn't seem to be a perfectly circular disk like it was 15 minutes ago or my eyes are going out on me ;^)

Moon is starting to darken on one corner now.Looks like it. But what was haze is now thicker. I might lose it to cloudiness.
