Another winter, another major astronomical event that Seattleites will have to struggle to see.

This month brings the mouthful of a "Super Blood Wolf Moon," the final and best lunar eclipse of a trio that began last January. It's the first total lunar eclipse visible across the entire U.S. in eight years, and as the full moon passes through Earth's shadow it will turn a coppery-red color.

The eclipse should last for more than an hour, with the partial eclipse starting right after 7:30 p.m. Sunday night, and the total eclipse beginning around 8:41 p.m. The maximum eclipse should fall around 9:12 p.m., and continue until 9:43 p.m.

And so, of course, Seattle is cloudy.

Sunday's weather will bring clouds throughout the day, although by 6 p.m. Seattle is forecasted to only be "mostly cloudy." Mid to upper 40s are expected, but by evening Seattle is expected to be mostly dry, if still gray.

With any luck, those partial clouds will clear enough that you can see the moon, which will also be super (meaning closer to earth in its orbit, making it appear slightly larger than usual).

This is, after all, our final total lunar eclipse until May 2021, so hopefully you can get out there and see something cool.
