Thanks for the heads up, Darryl! I'll be watching for it for sure. I've seen a few lunar eclipses before (at least 2 total eclipses) and I agree that its not a sight to be missed. I remember the first total I saw many years ago - I was expecting the umbra phase to result in a completely dark Moon. At first I thought the reports of a total eclipse was bogus, even though I greatly appreciated the ruddy orange-brown Moon. Of course that was back in the days when I didn't understand the physics of it.

I'll be praying for clear skies!
