If it's not overcast, and you're not sleepy, go out and look at the moon.

Sadly, it's too cloudy here to get much more than a glimpse. I'll have to rely on pictures.

We are completely covered by clouds. Bummer.

I'm sitting outside with a spotting scope watching it. It's a really neat process.

I was able to get a couple of pics before it clouded over.

My view as it approached the eclipse was about like MacGoo's...

About five minutes into full eclipse... The clouds came...

Sorry, no pics from the first half (was playing guitar, drinking my Belgi- Merican and sitting by a roaring campfire)... Bowie's Space Oddity was a hit as the moon became fully obscured by the way... ;)

Now they are dispersing, here's one from the second half...

It was cloudy here in Northern California as the moon rose, already dark from the eclipse and not showing through the backlit clouds. Once it got above the clouds, it was impressive like others' photos have been showing. In the meantime, we got some pretty sunset photos.

Leigh you got some nice pictures of it there, around by us 8:30 or so we could see it thru the neighbors trees, by 9:30 filtered light thru the clouds.
