We will be trying to do some observing at the observatory tonight

The sky is pretty bad with a lot of clouds out but we are heading out to view the lunar eclipse outside the observatory. We won't be opening up the dome, due to ice and snow buildup, but we have a heater inside. There is snow on the ground and around the observatory and enterence must be through the large gate, not the small one.

Dress warm if your going to arrive. We may not be out there the entire time. The eclipse event happens until 4am. We will likely be there until 3am. You may want to check this blog again before heading out if you head out late to visit. Wear boots and warm clothes.
