I wonder if the color change is proportional to how much atmosphere is between your eyes and the moon’s surface. Here on the east coast, at the same moment you and I are looking at the moon, the moon is significantly lower to your eye in TX than here. Lower in the sky = more atmosphere attenutation of the lower-frequency reds and yellows. Blue is not attenuated as much.
I don’t know, I read that there are a lot of factors into what color we will see. Its almost completely covered now, but still looks white. It mat turn after the complete eclipse, but 8 don’t know if I’ll be awake. The last time it turned blue, my daughter was fortunate to seen it as she lives on the west coast.
I’m at 94.78 W and it is pretty darn red here and directly overhead
Guess I’ll take a look out the window. It’s at or below zero here. Probably overcast.
I went out after I posted my response, and it was totally red! So cool, in got some good pictures.
I got as far as the indoor-outdoor thermometer. Peeked out, overcast, not doin' it. I've seen plenty of lunar eclipses, and missed a number of others, I'll live. :^)
