Every time there’s a solar eclipse, a blood moon, a super moon, or any other astronomical phenomenon, we never can see it here in Utah, it’s always far too cloudy and too overcast to see anything. Same with this Monday’s eclipse, though even if we could, we only would see a portion of it anyway.
If it’s any consolation, the size difference of a super moon cannot be seen with the naked eye. Lensing effects from the atmosphere can make much more of a difference and they don’t depend on how far away it is.

I felt like I can see larger moons at time.
Though I am not sure if it has to do with atmospheric effects or actual distance differences.
It has nothing to do with actual distances and everything to do with optical illusions and atmospheric effects.
