"Lunar X" has begun!  Thanks for bringing this to our attention Allen, this
was fun.

It's supposed to last four hours I think. I'll probably snap another in an
hour or so.

Looking at the weather satellite, the skies should be clear.

This shows all the Lunar X possibilities for 2011, and does indeed show
tomorrow evening, Nov 2, at 2114 CDT as the best opportunity:

Not sure about some of the predictions I've seen for the Lunar X being
visible tomorrow night. My understanding is that this is only visible for 4
hours prior to the moon reaching first quarter. According to the US Naval
Observatory, that occurs tomorrow about 12:30pm when the moon is about 10
degrees below the horizon, in broad daylight.  Similar story for the next
first quarter on Dec 2.

That same USNO data puts the X very visble on New Years eve though:

First quarter is at 1:15 a.m. Jan 1, 2012 about an hour after moonset.  That
puts it visible from shortly after 9pm to shortly before midnight

If your sky is clear, the shadow formation along the terminator known as the
Lunar X will be visible tomorrow night. The window for seeing it is listed
at around 4 hours beginning at 7pm on the East coast. It's a neat effect if
you've never seen it and looks good even in my TV Ranger.
