90% or so just about `10 minutes from totality.
For the record that red star to the 2 o'clock of the moon is Mars. We're a day away from opposition, which is the closest approach that mars will have to earth for some time.

For all you youngster astronomers out there, the shape of the Earth is proven during a solar eclipse!
You can see the outline of the earth's round edges creeping over the Moon as it enters the shadow.
Imagine seeing a lunar eclipse from the Moon. You would see a ring of bright orange light around the whole circumference of the Earth, every sunrise and sunset on the planet all at the same exact time!

Possible Meteor STORM this month???

On May 24th, Earth will pass through a cloud of debris from periodic comet 209P/LINEAR. The result could be a new meteor shower. Forecasters expect meteor rates as high as 200 per hour when Earth crosses the debris zone. There has even been talk of a possible meteor storm.

A meteor storm produces over 1000 meteors per hour. This could be quite an intense showing! It starts on a Saturday morning/Friday night around midnight... peak should last 2-4 hours or so. Great chance to get the kids outside and make some wishes.

Mercury will be its furthest from the sun on the 25th... so it's your chance to see one of the most elusive naked eye planets for a few weeks before and after. Check it out just before dawn!

I went to a drive in on Saturday. While I was sitting there freezing my ass off I noticed a light the size of a star moving fairly quickly across the sky. It was definitely not an airplane. I assume it was a satellite.

Forecast Friday night into Saturday morning is saying clear skies. Dudes you have got to check this shower out. Could be something you remember for a lifetime.
Or nothing might happen. Yeah. There is that too but it's looking like quite a show.

It's probably going on all night, but the peak will be around 1-3 am.

It was cloudy here.
0-2 on major astronomical events here this year due to clouds.
