For those living on the western portion of North America, or anywhere in the Pacific from Alaska to Australia, be aware a total lunar eclipse will occur in the early hours of Saturday morning. Also known as a "blood moon", the earth will cast a deep red shadow on the lunar surface during the total eclipse phase. As a bonus, a solar wind has just struck the earth's atmosphere, which has the potential to spark a geomagnetic storm in the far north tonight in conjunction with the lunar eclipse. The weather forecast for Fairbanks is questionable for tomorrow morning, so lets hope the clouds stay at bay.
