Just got my ass out of bed at 3am to go out of my apartment building to see it. I remember seeing a partial as a kid, but holy frabjous day is there a world of difference.
The moon was an incredibly dark red (from what I saw before). It's literally a blood red moon, like more red than I remember observing Mars as.
I was hoping to see it off my balcony (should be able to catch one of the 2014 lunar eclipses that way) but it's still incredibly high in the sky. However for setting an alarm and putting a winter coat on, it was totally worth it.
Quite simply, it's by far the coolest thing I've seen this year and I spent diddley squat on it.
