Does anyone have a good link for tonight's eclipse?

[cbayer]

I am having trouble finding a site that tells me the time of this event in my time zone.

Thanks.

2. Thanks so much.

I am on the western edge of the pacific zone, so I figure 6:30 - 7'ish then.

3. Well, you need to be in the right hemisphere

Earth’s shadow will totally engulf the Moon from 10:00 to 10:52 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, or 7:00 to 7:52 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. The partial phases of the eclipse last for about an hour and a quarter before and after totality.

Unlike a solar eclipse, each stage of a lunar eclipse is visible to everyone on the Moon-facing side of Earth at once; we’re all looking together.

5. Um, I'm in the "moon rises while entering the umbra"

So I figure i will see the whole thing just as the moon rises, which is good.

I've got a completely unobstructed view and virtually no ambient light. Should be cool.

Unless it's cloudy.

Thanks for the great info.

7. I noticed how amazingly bright the moon was last night

As long as it doesn't get cloudy it should be quite a contrast tonight!
