Triple whammy tonight and I was going to take a pic but it is so cloudy I can't even see the moon.
People from Moscow, via Sydney, to Washington DC will be given a rare celestial treat on Wednesday as three lunar phenomena coincide. Weather permitting, of course.
A blue moon (a second full moon in a calendar month), a super moon (when the moon is unusually close to Earth, making it bigger and brighter) and a blood moon (a moment during an eclipse when the moon appears red) will all coincide for the first time since 1866.
So for the first time in 152 years a super moon, blue moon and total eclipse is happening and I can't even see it

This will be followed by a solar eclipse on 15th February. BIG month.
