There is a nearly full lunar eclipse tonight. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth moves between the Sun and Moon and is on the day of the full moon. Tonight is the full sturgeon moon and the eclipse starts about 10:30 and peaks just after midnight with a 96% coverage.

The great thing about a lunar eclipse, it's perfectly safe to look at. In fact, you can even use binoculars or a telescope if you have them.

It's looking like a clear to partly cloudy sky and mild temperatures, so enjoy!
