I'm trying to work out whether to observe from my back yard or travel. The first is easier of course but the western horizon is partially obstructed. The question is: how low will the moon be when it disappears into the twilight? From Joe's diagram it appears it could be as low as 5 degrees. Anyone have any idea? [I have seen a rising eclipse but that was over the ocean and I have no memory of how high it was when we first spotted it.]
