Weather Likely to Hinder Lunar Eclipse Viewing / Possible Online Alternatives

Total lunar eclipse sequence

 

It appears (as usual) that we here on the Oregon coast will again miss the opportunity to witness a solar/lunar event due to local weather conditions.

Well, there are some alternatives to view tonight’s super blood wolf moon full lunar eclipse.

Aside from traveling to another part of the world to witness the lunar event, we have found a few places that are ‘claiming’ to be broadcasting live during the lunar eclipse free. The Wild Coast Compass can not guarantee that these sites actually will or are going to broadcasting since the live feeds on the sites are not active at the publish time.

Starting at 6:36 p.m. PST on January 20th, the moon will begin to slip into the sun’s shadow. By 7:33 p.m. PST, the moon will start to glow a faint red color, and by 8:41 p.m. PST, it will be a dark red. The total lunar eclipse occurs at 9:12 p.m. PST. Eastern Oregonians in the Mountain Time Zone will want to push their viewing times back exactly an hour.

If you have other options to watch the event live online, please feel free to post them in comments. Also if you have photos of your own viewing, please share them with us in the comment section.

Good luck and have fun.
