I know there's going to be an Eclipse tonight. And I know some girl posted this question a couple of hours ago. But I need to know what time will it occur exactly? I live in the Orange County.

And how long does the process take. From full moonlight to eclipse?

The Lunar Eclipse we'll be having this Tuesday morning, August 28, will be starting as a partial around 1:51AM Pacific Time. An hour later at 2:52AM Pacific Time it should be in it's totality. The process will take several hours from the very beginning to the very end. I hope the OC is clear for you and there isn't too much city light pollution. I'm here in the High Desert of So. CA and it's very nice and clear up here. The Moon is very bright. Enjoy!

I don't know if you mean Orange County California or Florida.

The exact time of the eclipse depends on where you are. Here is a Lunar Eclipse Computer created by the US Naval Observatory. Type in your location and it will tell you when it occurs.

In Santa Ana, California the moon will enter totality at 2:52 AM but the eclipse will start earlier. In Orlando, Florida at 5:52 AM. Check the link.

Your lunar eclipse will happen at 2:52 am, your time. (Orange Cty, CA, right?) Go to spaceweather.com to find out all about it.

(I only have about 1 hour and 21 minutes to go) ;-)
