It's really orange outside


Here in Rhode Island. Lunar eclipse?

Anyone else have a weird orange glow outside their window?

1. Here, too

in MA (north shore). It's the tag end of a blazing orange sunset reflected by clouds above horizon level. I think.

Eclipse should be fun--isn't it going to be a blood moon?

(remember to spell reflect with the "f")

2. It should't begin until after 8 for you, and it will get crazy around 9.

10. Lunar eclipses happen every so-often.
Last time I saw one was several years ago.

4. Maybe it's what we call "the glow time of day"
Often, out here in the west, we have a gorgeous glow that overtakes everything. And it's before dusk starts to fall. It doesn't happen every day of the year so it's just often enough to feel unique when it happens. Enjoy!

12. It's the new terror alert system
They changed the color of the sky so you know what to wear that day...

Thanks to Jeebus for Tom Ridge!

13. Lunar eclipse!
In CT, they said it wouldn't begin until about 9.

I was just outside too having a cigarette and I did't even see the moon.

Next cig break, I will have to check.
