Spectacular view of this morning's (8/28/2007) lunar eclipse as viewed from the Illinois State Water Survey/Midwestern Regional Climate Center grounds in Champaign
Samuel Shea, service climatologist at the Midwestern Regional Climate Center in Champaign, shares this amazing collage of images from this morning's lunar eclipse. In his e-mail to me, Sam tells us:
"...the weather could not have been any more perfect here. The images were captured in the lawn of the Illinois State Water Survey/Midwestern Regional Climate Center."
Sam tells us he has other pictures online from various times during the eclipse if you click on this link:

Thanks SO MUCH for sharing these with us, Sam, and please pass along our best wishes to all of your colleagues at the Illinois State Water Survey and the Midwestern Regional Climate Center!
