There's another lunar eclipse on Dec. 10, 2011, that will be visible in North America (wherever local weather conditions permit).

The next total solar eclipse to be visible in the 48 states will be on August 21, 2017 (path of totality will stretch from Oregon to South Carolina). It will be the first total eclipse of the sun visible in the US (outside of Alaska and Hawaii) since 1979...much better than a total lunar eclipse.
