I'm watching the moon from my windows. Earlier due to the shifting clouds the moon looked like Groucho Marx. I'm hoping to view the sky crazies from the warmth of my apt. 1) because it is cold outside (duh) 2) because I sprained my ankle stepping off a curb on Friday night. (wacked) NASA will be broadcasting all the happenings, but that won't be as exciting.
By craggy, he's blormey! Hey, get your dad to take you on a midnight plane ride above the clouds - you could do an eclipse Traffic Report and then all his flight expenses are tax deductible I'm pretty sure.
you will start seeing something around 11PM. It'll end around 2AM. Mostly cloudy here in Oakland CA but can see the moon peeking though the clouds. Enjoy!
Anyone wanting specific info about the eclipse should click here. The important events are the beginning of the partial phase (when the moon starts to disappear), the start of totality (when it completely disappears and then hopefully becomes dimly visible and red); the end of totality, and the end of the partial phase.
So, at 1:30am, I awake to screaming. Mr. Canuck has gone (for eclipse viewing) to wake the 14 year old, who, after an evening watching scary movies, screams, then Mr. Canuck screams, then...yes, it's a bloody brilliant effing eclipse, now go back to bed.
"I'll get drunk and forget."
Oh shit, there goes the planet.
