Total Lunar Eclipse (May 15, 2003)
« on: May 15, 2003, 04:00:00 PM »
Those of us in North America and parts of Europe and Africa will be treated to a total lunar eclipse tonight, weather permitting of course.

Here is the schedule:

It's raining here now, so it doesn't look like I'll be able to see it unless it suddenly clears up. ":\"

Storms here since around 5 PM, extremely cloudy now, doubt it will be visible, but if it is the moon stands clear just outside my side window.

Lost two yesterday!

Sens to Jersey and the eclipse to clouds.

Good thing I didn't have a lottery ticket!
