Re: The big fat Eclipse thread!
The sun's already been completely eclipsed by clouds.

I came back from Zarnichester with the equipment at 75mph, even overtaking a Porsche.
And now I'm back here, it's cloudy
It was nice and sunny in Zarnichester

The clouds cleared at noon, allowing me to see a small bite out of the top left limb of the Sun.

Supposedly, there's going to be a moony eclipse tonight.

I've just looked out the window.
The moon looks perfectly normal.

8th April - total eclipse incoming!
I believe it will be best viewed across North America and there'll be YouTube livestreams of the event, but a partial eclipse could be visible on the island of Ireland and the whole of Scotland - but stalling just part way across England, by which time it will have gone dark anyway.

In the United States, totality will be visible through the states of Texas (including parts of San Antonio, Austin, and Fort Worth and all of Arlington, Dallas, Killeen, Temple, Texarkana, Tyler, Sulphur Springs and Waco), Oklahoma, Arkansas (including Morrilton/Petit Jean, Hot Springs, Searcy, Jonesboro, and Little Rock), Missouri, Tennessee (extreme northwestern corner of Lake County), Illinois (including Carbondale, where it intersects the path of the 2017 eclipse), Kentucky, Indiana (including Bloomington, Evansville, Indianapolis, Anderson, Muncie, Terre Haute, and Vincennes), Ohio (including Akron, Cleveland, Dayton, Lima, Lorain, Toledo, and Warren), Michigan (extreme southeastern corner of Monroe County), Pennsylvania (including Erie), Upstate New York (including Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Rochester, Syracuse, Watertown, the Adirondacks, Potsdam, and Plattsburgh), and northern Vermont (including Burlington), New Hampshire, and Maine, with the line of totality going almost directly over the state's highest point Mount Katahdin.
The largest city entirely in the path will be Dallas, Texas.
It will be the second total eclipse visible from the central United States in just 7 years, after the eclipse of August 21, 2017. This will be the last total solar eclipse visible in the contiguous United States until August 23, 2044.

Re: The big fat Eclipse thread!
I was working this out last night. If I take a long walk to the other side of town where there's a west-facing view, about 8pm I could in theory see a very partial partial eclipse. If it isn't cloudy.
The sun will only be about 5 degrees above the horizon though.

It must be happening because it's getting dark outside.
