looks like it'll be like 4pm-5pm local time here in the greater #Boston area

@rey @sundogplanets yes, I have 4:00 PM for disappearance and 5:09PM for reappearance at my place in #waltham

The moon will look pretty next to Venus tonight regardless

@glasspusher @sundogplanets good luck! i am shaking a fist at the ever-present cloud over Somerville

@rey @sundogplanets

anything is possible

@rey @sundogplanets just saw the moon and Venus. It’s going to happen!
@rey @sundogplanets no love here. Saw them about 20 min before occultation, then clouds for reappearance. Might get a look soon...

@rey @sundogplanets

Clouds blocked reappearance, but I got this nice shot at about 550PM EDT

@glasspusher @rey @sundogplanets looks like a binocular shot? Well done one if it is. I missed it because I was in trees and partly cloudy anyway so nice to see even like this.

iPhone up to my telescope. 150mm diameter f/9 reflector, 18mm eyepiece

@glasspusher @rey @sundogplanets I just zoomed and enhanced and saw detail on the moon. That's pretty cool.

@fullywoolly @rey @sundogplanets

Yeah I didn’t do any processing of that image
