Eclipse Eclipsed !

Around 8pm local time , ALL sky east to south was clear and blue and promising much for the lunar eclipse.
I set up 10 x 50s , 15 x 70s and 102mm scope at 25x , all mounted and awaiting the "magical hour" and what happens ?
Thick dark grey cloud blows over from the west , completely shrouding ALL areas of sky east of the north / south meridian from zenith to horizon.
TYPICAL ! :-)
Hope others have clearer skies.
Kenny.
