NO...I  read it wrong.  I was scrolling too fast in the table......the time
of 1115 is reappearance.  I need to have more patience with the scroll bar.

I hope to be able to see it here.  allen

Interesting....I think the author of the article in ST got the times wrong
in his article.  You are correct Tony in your time range....but he
subtracted 5 hours from UT instead of 4...........here is a link with
correct times for Midatlantic....to a just a certain level of accuracy.

It looks like for Raleigh Durham the time will be about 1115pm EDT.  That
matches your time, but not the articles.  I always have to think about this.


I thought I might try to get out and see it.  allen

A tripple star in Sagittarius will wink out between 9:58pm and 11:15pm
tomorrow night.  If the weather is clear enough we might even see it
dim multiple times.

P.S. I've already pointed out to the fine folks at
lunar-occultations.com that Raleigh Durham is in NC not WV.
