The March 2025 total lunar eclipse brought a "Blood Moon" overnight, but it was too cloudy to see over NYC, Long Island and N.J.

The first of two lunar eclipses this year, and the only one visible in the U.S., is taking place early Friday morning. So if you are hoping to catch a glimpse of the blood moon, you’ll need to set your alarm extra early.

You’ll want to look to the sky tonight in NYC—a full lunar eclipse is set to take over the sky and stun New Yorkers with a red hue. As the first full lunar eclipse since 2022, it’ll begin tonight, March 13, just before midnight, when the Earth passes between the sun and moon.
