Watched from moon rise until full eclipse. Had to come inside then because my ears had begun to bleed from the neighbors’ blasted wind chimes. But it was lovely to see the reflection in the lake.
Reasonably clear sky in South Florida. I watched it for a good hour, up to the totality.
Found myself wondering how I would have reacted in ancient times.
Actually, it won’t be, beyond adjusting the times for your time zone. Solar eclipses are different for everyone, but everyone sees the same lunar eclipse. This was actually quite useful in the era of exploration, as it provided a well-defined astronomical event that could be used to calibrate longitude calculations (Lewis and Clark observed one, for instance).
I watched it here in Panama. Since it’s the rainy season, I’m amazed we had clear skies.
The early part I could see from my apartment window. For totality and after I had to go down to the street outside. I shared the experience with the security guard for the building, who had never seen a lunar eclipse before.
Okay, saw the coolest thing tonight. Stars rising over the moon.
Usually the moon is too bright and washes out the stars near it*, but tonight, the moon was dark enough that we could see the stars around the moon. We were looking through a neighbor’s telescope and were watching the stars right up to the edge of the moon, when one appeared from behind the moon and started moving away from it.
*I realized “Oh, yeah, this is why you don’t see stars in photos taken on the moon’s surface, truthers”.
I took a couple timelapses of the eclipse.
The eastern sky was cloudless here — until near totality. I made some good pix and a couple of videos with my superzoom. Most of them turned out well.
It’s hard to continually try to centre an object at maximum zoom. Adjusting the tripod by even a millimetre or two caused the moon to shoot out of the frame completely. She’s a hard mistress.
At near totality, a huge sheet of cloud moved in from the southwest and obliterated the moon. So I couldn’t shoot it coming out of eclipse.
Had a great viewing experience tonight, just getting home now after going out for late eats. Got to the beach and met up with three friends at a beachside bar. It was cloudy but the clouds were moving and changing so we held out hope to see it. There were quite a few people out there, all looking skyward while having some beers and had a live band.
The crowd cheered as the clouds parted and the eclipse was visible, the clouds stayed away until it was total then covered over again. But we had another beer and waited, and when it was time for the totality to end and the other side of the moon brightened, the clouds parted again and stayed that way until the moon was nearly full and white again.
I’d call that a successful viewing, we had a great time. Also walked along the breakwater and around, where we could get a lovely view of downtown with the moon overhead. Here’s a public link to a little collage I made with my grainy cell phone pics.
Neato!
It was cloudy therefore it did not happen.
I’ll have to catch the next one.
Heh.
We went to the local state park after hours (they don’t mind), and watched it from the hill overlooking the lake. We got there around 7:15, and watched the moon rise over the hills to the south. Unbelievably bright - we could actually recognize colors by the moonlight. (Mostly the blaze orange traffic cones by the access road, though, darker colors not so much.)
We set up at a picnic table on the hilltop, and settled in for the evening, with a cup hot chocolate plus Bailey’s Irish Cream, which made the cold tolerable. (We had dressed warmly; the heavy dew was more of a problem.)
The eclipse started just after nine, and was total just after 10; it looked like a naval orange in the sky. Beautiful, and fascinating!
A bit past my regular bedtime though, I’m a bit groggy at work today.
Clear skies here in Ellsworth, ME. Saw the early part and then close to the … (insert astronomical term for “complete blackout” here) … it was definitely red, and spooked me out a bit. I can certainly understand why “primitive man” would have gotten a little concerned.
Later in the night, it turned back into a great big beaming 'ol SPOTLIGHT WHITE MOON.
Glad to have seen what I did 
Got a great view of it here in Southwest Ohio. Awesome sight. Went to bed after it became fully eclipsed. Woke up at 5am and the moon was clear and bright.
It clouded over here exactly as the eclipse reached 100%. Bummer.
I watched it from the front lawn with some of the neighbours. I had a couple of pairs of binoculars which gave us good views. They had a bottle of wine and glasses, which gave us a good time :D.
Like **Leaffan **it clouded up for us just as it reached totality, but the clouds were patchy enough at the start to let us see it clearly ever few minutes. It was interesting how the Earthshine lighting up the eclipsed Moon was brighter on the bottom edge - perhaps because it was passing through the bottom of the Earth’s shadow and more light was coming from that direction?
Completely cloudy.
Completely clear.
Although my time lapse didn’t work out, and my car wouldn’t start when it was time to go home…but completely clear.
