The lunar eclipse Sunday night will occur while there is a Supermoon in the sky, one closer to the Earth than usual when an eclipse happens. National Weather Service Meterologist in Charge at the Tulsa Office, Steve Piltz, says it could also be what’s referred to as a ‘Blood Moon’ because of a possibly reddish tinge. Piltz says it’s been 32 years since the last Supermoon eclipse and will be 18 years before another.
Skies are predicted to be clear Sunday night. The eclipse is expected to begin at 9:11pm Oklahoma time and last until just after 10pm.
