GGGRRRRRR, clouds in the way on the west coast, lol

Absolutely. I was outside and noticed when it just started but didn't pay much attention. I just thought to myself that I could have sworn it was a full moon earlier tonight. Then I got a call from the mother in-law telling me that there is a partial eclipse happening.

Looks like the mother-in-law might be good for something after all.

That's what normally always happens on the east coast whenever there is something interesting happening.

Hope it clears up for you.

Adelaide 100% cloud cover with rain ..... not a chance!

P

I went out and looked 43 secs after your post hit the wall put I must of missed it cause it looked 3/4 full, must be a different view on the east coast.

Here you go then cloud lovers. Best I can do for you at the moment.

You saw it then. Its a partial eclipse of the full moon

So, that's what it was...
Thanks for the heads up, as soon as I took some crappy pictures and video I logged on on ATS to see if
somebody had reported it.

Viewtiful spectacle, I just wish somebody had told us before...

Not only clouds but dark and I punched a pot plant with my big toe.

I hate lunar eclipses now..

I really hate the rain grrr, would have been good.

Yeah I'm here in SEQ too, yay go Queenslanders!!
Also to the WA commenter who said there is clouds blocking your view. Just to let you know even if they weren't there it would still be barely visible from WA and you could only catch a glimpse of it at sunset. But other than that it was a great spectacle, can't wait for the Venus transition due to happen in a few days time the first time in 220+ years!!! Exciting.

Umm sorry to burst your bubble but the clouds parted and we saw it just fine thank you.
