Hope you will be able to view it from your location. Smile Looks like west coasters will have better luck.

Article quote:

"The second total lunar lunar eclipse of 2014 and 2015 lunar-eclipse tetrad will occur on Wednesday, October 8, 2014, and will be visible from the Pacific Ocean and regions immediately bordering it. As the Moon passes completely through the Earth's dark shadow, or umbra, it will gradually get darker and then take on a rusty or blood red color."

Yes, second blood moon of the year. I'm an east coaster, but 'hope those on the left coast can catch it. Thanks for posting this, lbp {#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}

Watched it with my neighbors. After the storms went through!

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

I was in my dark back yard around 6am, praying to God that I didn't get too close to any of the skunks that like to hang out under my shrubs. I saw the blood moon before it set. {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

I had my alarm set so I could get up and see the eclipse, but I somehow slept through the alarm. {#emotions_dlg.blushing}

Last night's news said Arizona is under too much cloud cover to view it. Glad it wasn't on my "to do" list, but my grandson was looking forward to it.
