There is a Total Lunar Eclipse early this Thursday morning (21st February) -

The Penumbra phase (partial eclipse) starts approx 00.40 in Manchester, with the Umbral phase (Totality) begining approx 03.00.

Totality ends approx 03.50 and the final partial phase ends approx 06.15.

Sadly, weather predictions are not favourable - cloud is forecast for Thursday morning Sad
