Lunar eclipse tonight

[Becky]

Will you be taking a look? It should be visible - cloud permitting, of course - between 9pm (when it rises) and 10.15pm. Just look east

Yeah, saw that in the paper.

It almost always clouds over on these occasions.

And it did.

 

[Becky]

Typical! Been hoping for rain for ages, and it finally clouds over when I want to see the moon

After so many beautifully clear, balmy evenings, it clouded-up here also. Dohh..!

 

[floppybootstomp]

Ditto here. I peered out and thought 'Who's nicked the moon?'

And, of course, on the following night I had a great view of the Moon.

And nearby Mars shining a beautiful red.
