Where to See It: Total Lunar Eclipse Coming Tax Day Eve in US

The first total eclipse of the moon since December 2011 will be visible in North America, just in time to greet last-minute tax filers in the United States.

However, many Americans may not be in a good place to see the eclipse because of cloudy and rainy conditions.

The total lunar eclipse, resulting from the Earth's position between the moon and sun, will occur early Tuesday morning, EDT.

The eclipse will begin at 12:53 a.m. EDT Tuesday. It will reach totality at 3:06 a.m. EDT and end at 4:24 a.m. EDT.

Viewing conditions will be poor in the eastern United States, except for South Florida, AccuWeather.com Meteorologist Brian Edwards said.

High pressure systems over the Canadian Prairies, Texas and Oklahoma will be in control bringing clear skies and good viewing conditions to the central U.S. and parts of the Southwest, Edwards said.

"A storm off the Pacific Northwest coast will bring clouds and showers to western Washington and northwestern Oregon," he said.

In addition to the eclipse, Mars will be on a close approach to the Earth, about 57 million miles away.

I'd like to see this, but I really don't want to get up at 3am on my day off! Bad enough I gotta get up at 4am, when I have to work.
