I am setting the alarm and taking the kids out to see it.

I could be wrong, but I believe a solstice is a point in time having to do with the tilt of the earths axis. The tilt determines the length of our days and nights-nothing to really see. Did you perhaps mean the lunar eclipse which is taking place tonight around midnight Pacific time. It happens to coincide with the winter solstice. Regards, Mike

I believe the optimum viewing time where I live will be shortly after 8:00 a.m........on ABC's Good Morning America.

Snow and overcast here for the evening.

Someone take some pictures for us, please.

I'll see the beginning, may stay up to see some orange, but doubt that I'll watch much more...

About a half moon showing in Maryland @ 2:10 AM...

Had to wait a few minutes for a break in the clouds, but I got mooned. I returned the favor right back at mother nature. We were both blushing .

Went outside at 3 am, heavily overcast, could not see a darn thing. CURSE WORDS. At 6pm Sunday evening the moon was full, huge, and beautiful as it rose in the sky. What are the odds I will be around the next time such an eclipse happens?

Moon was still there at 6 am!

My Daughter and I watched it. It was pretty cool.

2092 is the next one on the solstice. The last one was in the 1600s!
