The last time there was total cloud cover here. So I’m boycotting lunar eclipses.
Must have something to do with the dateline. This says the ninth but It’s supposed to be tomorrow morning.

“In the predawn hours of Oct. 8, early risers and restless souls weary from insomnia are in for a rare spectacle as the Hunter’s Moon glows a coppery red, and is veiled by Earth’s great shadow.”
I stayed up way too late last time, but got some good pic of the moon. Doubt i will last so long tonight, thought it will be around midnight my time. We geezers need our rest.
Feast of Tabernacles also begins...
B-L-O-O-D. That spells Moon!
I have to get up at 4AM,,
The show is supposed to start at 4:15..
Plan to see it..
Alarm is set for 4 AM. Camera/tripod is set up, just have to carry it outside. We have some clouds here in north central Colorado, so it’s a bit dicey.
No, it's known as a lunar eclipse. Don't know where this recent viral fad of calling it "blood moon" started.
In AZ during monsoon season, the winds whip up the dust and we ‘semi’ often get some very blood-looking moons. Beautiful stuff in a surreal horror movie/post apocalyptic way.
They aint that rare, I have seen several.
This is the first blood moon of Shemitta, the year of release.
If this is a normal night I will be waking up to pee just in time to look out the window and see the eclipse.
Finally a clear morning. I have a great view from my deck.
I need to put on some mosquito repellent or else this Blood Moon will take on a double meaning.
Thanks for posting, I just wandered outside and caught it. Posting from my pad here in the front yard.
Freakish. Just as the last sliver of light faded from view a couple of mutts somewhere in the fields let out blood curdling howls. Hair on the back of my neck stood up. Fighting cloud cover here in Central CA. :-(
Just went out and saw it from Texas. It’s not as spectacular as other past events because the moon is somewhat low on the horizon, and the high thin clouds are a little obscuring,
Does the blood moon have Muslim significance? As a potential date for something bad to happen?
