The event is due to begin at 5.07pm.
The first penumbral lunar eclipse of 2020 is taking place this evening.
It's due to begin at 5.07pm and totality - or the moment of total obscuration of the moon during an eclipse - is at 7.10pm, with the event ending at about 9.12pm.
Binoculars or telescopes can be used to examine the moon closely but, weather-pemitting, it will be visible to the naked eye.
However, if conditions are too poor this evening, there'll be three more penumbral eclipses later this year.
