Get ready for WINTER SOLSTICE coming on December 20 this year. That’s the shortest day and longers night in the Northern Hemisphere.
If you live in North America you’ll get a chance to see a TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE on the very same day! Well, that is assuming the skies are clear, of course!
Here on the West Coast the lunar eclipse begins around 9:30 p.m. PST Monday. The entire eclipse will be observable and it lasts just a few hours.
