Good, but had to move further south/west to get away from cloud band advancing from the North. Sound familiar?

Edit: SkippySky suggests this area should be OK tonite.
Thanks! So we are expecting moonrise around 5:27, and it will rise eclipsed - given the location you have given me, at what point should we be able to see the moon? I understand totality ends 6:45 or around then?
