I doubt I can see it, it will only be shortly visible in the morning hours here.

In my head I hear Jimi Hendrix singing when there's talk about eclipses...

In my head I hear Jimi Hendrix singing when there's talk about eclipses...

Well, the night I was born
Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born
I swear the moon turned a fire red
Well my poor mother cried out "lord, the gypsy was right!"
And I seen her, fell down right dead
(Have mercy)

Crossing my fingers for a hole in the clouds big enough to witness this.

It'll be total from PA, but at 1 in the morning.
I don't think I'll see it

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Can someone please get this blasted atmosphere out of my way? It is blocking the sky.

On the solstice too! I wonder when the last time that happened was?

 

[diogom]

Does anyone know when it will be visible in Portugal? Although I doubt I would see anything with the clouds. It's a shame this happens during winter.

 

[DanM]

It's supposed to be snowing in chicago.

Thanks! I had seen a map similar to that one on NASA's website, but it wasn't very clear. I hope the clouds go away. It's raining like if it's the end of the world here!
