This eclipse might be darker red than other recent lunar eclipses. Blame the Tonga volcano. During a lunar eclipse, most of the light illuminating the Moon passes through Earth's stratosphere where it is reddened by scattering. When the Tonga volcano erupted on Jan. 15, 2022, it hurled 400 million kilograms of ash and fumes deep into the stratosphere. The volcano's lingering exhaust could shade the eclipse, making it a deeper darker red than usual.
The eclipse will be widely visible from the Americas on the evening of May 15th; and Africa and Europe on the morning of May 16th. This map created by Michael Zeiler of GreatAmericanEclipse.com shows who is favored:
