My chances of seeing it are fading as the weather moves in from the West. It'll probably be too overcast in in an hour or so.

I can see the moon - nothing unusual yet - I think the full eclipse will start about 10:30 Central

VISIBILITY RIGHT NOW
Moon is above the horizon from Little Rock AR (US) [change].
It is visible looking in the East-South-East direction at an altitude of 9° above the horizon.

Really bro?? The moon is always rising in the east and setting in the west. Full moons start around dusk.

No good telescope images yet. Its like the clouds are doing a striptease over the moon and the good bits aren't showing

The sky will be cast with beautiful moonbows and the moon is going to change colors.

All I can see is a faint glow now. I don't look for it to get any better.

Ha...at least my comment wasn't as bad as what NWS Nashville just said:

If you're planning to watch the Lunar Eclipse tonight in #MiddleTennessee, unfortunately it's not looking promising. The HRRR forecast model loop below shows extensive clouds blocking the view (gray/white colors) #sorry #wearejustthemessenger

It looks spectacular here in SELA even with the clouds stretching across it. Sorry, Tennessee!

Anybody ever try to take an iPhone photo thru binoculars before? Don’t.

Taken only with iPhone as sun was setting.



Thought I had something here but pointed at top of tree.



You may get some of this.



Finally best I could get.



And now I think it’s actually starting. Might try now since I practiced.
