Warm Weather, Afternoon Showers Ahead of Sunday’s ‘Blood Moon’ Eclipse

Saturday, Sunday and Monday will be all similar days with highs around 90 degrees and a 30 percent chance of afternoon showers and storms.

Sunday night should be pretty cool with the first “total lunar eclipse” for the Lower 48 since 2019.

The eclipse runs from 9:32 p.m. to 2:50 a.m.

The total phase or the “blood moon” phase occurs from 11:29 p.m. to 12:53 a.m. and peaks at 12:11 a.m., when the Earth’s shadow completely covers the sun.

As a result of this full moon and astronomically high tides, minor coastal flooding (similar to sunny-day flooding in the fall) will be possible at times of high tide between now and Monday.
