Partial Lunar Eclipse

According to Sky and Telescope, those of us in this area will be able to see the sun's shadow partially go over the full moon starting at about 3:15 am Saturday morning, mid-eclipse being at about 4:40 am as the sky is lightening...probably best to see it when it is still dark....more info here and here.  This should look lovely as the moon will be low in the western sky and appear quite large.
