Well change of plans, the sky is starting to clear and I can see the earths shadow growing on the moon.  Hope the sky continues to clear for you. I'm probably going to go outside and check out the sky in half an hour.

I remember back in 2012, I was at school taking a test when the solar eclipse started, luckily we got to go out to see it and it was really strange, everything started turning a shade of yellow.

That would have been a good experience! I assume you had to finish the test before you were allowed to go out and see it?

I went out to my backyard a few minutes ago. The moon was completely covered by clouds. The only light I could see was light pollution.

My view of the 'Super Blue Blood Moon'. Nothing... The same view I have as well. It's overcast now unfortunately. I think I might've seen a little bit of an eclipse, it didn't look like a full moon to me, but then again the moon was so bright I was seeing double. I need to get glasses!  Seems like the weather hasn't been favourable for all of us! It's very overcast here as well, and EyewitnessTV , @zampakid & longaotian all mentioned that it is overcast at their locations as well.  Well change of plans, the sky is starting to clear and I can see the earths shadow growing on the moon. Just got back from a little drive out for this evening.  Seems like we were lucky longaotian! It started clearing up here at about 10.50pm, so just in time. It has since started to cloud over again about an hour or so ago, but it’s allowed to now that it is over! I managed to get some shots of it too! Some may be a little blurry though.
