A total eclipse of the moon will occur tonight (May 15) and if you're looking for the best weather conditions the event, we suggest heading to the Northern and Central Great Plains where mainly clear skies will prevail through the entire celestial show.

Elsewhere around the country, the weather will be problematic in varying degrees for the lunar eclipse, which is the first of 2022 and is also known as the Super Flower Blood Moon of May.

(That's because it's the Full Flower Moon and is happening while the moon is at its closest to the Earth or the month, making it a so-called supermoon.).

If you end up with bad weather, you can watch the Super Flower Blood Moon eclipse online and enjoy views of the full moon from around the world where the skies may be clearer.

EDT (0228 GMT on May 16), reach its Blood Moon peak at 12:11 a.m.
