Looks Like A Mostly Clear Night For A Total Lunar Eclipse Central And South-Central States



Reminding all astronomy buffs- or those IN the buff since it'll be a warm morning (no lights- please)- of the fairly-rare total eclipse of the moon tommorow morning- peaking in the Central States just before dawn.

There could be a pig in the viewing oinkment with clouds and scattered areas of precip from Nebraska and Iowa northward to the Canadian border.

Otherwise- except for local-area clouds- no widespread viewing obstructions most other areas
