IT SURE FEELS LIKE WINTER!!

http://www.capecoralnow.net/ Today starts the first day of winter, seems to me like it started 2weeks ago. It's been so cold. Did you see the lunar eclipse this morning? That is a rare event i think the last time was about 372 yrs ago and the next one will be in about 85 yrs.
 A lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes behind the earth so that the earth blocks the sun's rays from striking the moon. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, there is always a full moon the night of a lunar eclipse. The type and length of an eclipse depend upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes. The most recent total lunar eclipse occurred on December 21, 2010 at 0817 UTC
