Total Lunar Eclipse For the West

Sacramento CA is in line for a nice early morning treat, a total lunar eclipse. The treat is that the eclipse will be toward moonset, when the moon takes on an 'enlarged' appearance, as the atmospheric effects help distort the moon's size.

Colorful hues of copper and orange are expected during the total lunar eclipse.

Next total lunar eclipse on April 15, 2014. We'll be able to see that one, weather permitting.
