Solar Eclipse 2024

[pmorrow]

Is anyone else in the path of totality?

I am literally right on the edge of the path in Oakville in Canada. I'm slightly outside, but I'm a 3 minute walk from the edge. Unfortunately the weather might be bad for it.

I could travel roughly 3 hours from Halifax to Moncton and be pretty damn close to the path but to be honest, I really dont care enough to do that. Halifax is supposed to be around 97% obscuration. Close enough for me.

I'm in Burlington so I think I'm on it....?

I'm in Burlington so I think I'm on it....?

Ya Burlington/Hamilton/Niagara is the 100% path.

I'm in Hamilton today and the city is expecting 100,000 visitors to see it. Niagara is expecting over 1mill and has declared a state of emergency I think lol.

Hamilton time: 2:03:56pm - 4:31:12pm. "Total eclipse start/end" - 3:18:12pm-3:20:05pm
Burlington time: 2:04:05pm - 4:31:16pm. "Total eclipse start/end" - 3:18:28pm-3:20:03pm

You will be 100% also. I’m in the 97%. I’m off today, and will be in an observatory to follow that eclipse.

All I can say is if I stockpiled eclipse glasses I could've made a fortune from all the last minute seekers willing to pay for the privilege to witness this. FOMO is very real.

I bought mine on Amazon like 3 weeks ago, and the day I got them I set up a return and they just gave me my money back.

The path:





I wonder if anybody is going to watch it from a boat in Lake Erie or Lake Ontario.
That... would be cool.

[blayze]

Toronto covered in clouds today, bummer

[2014olympicgold]

Ya Ancaster is completely covered in clouds.

[Eskimo Brother]

Full clouds in Mississauga too.

As for the boat comment, it would be cool but I would only do it if I had my own dock. Otherwise I would imagine the public docks would be impossible today because of it.

[Invictus]

Pretty clear here! Just some whispy clouds. Not sure what the cover is suppose to be like maybe ~92%???

[2014olympicgold]

Hailmaid and Norfolk are supposed to be cleared up by the time it happens....so Ancaster/Hamilton/Burlington will have clearish skies by the time the sun goes down.

---edit---
Actually it's clearing up quite a bit now. Maybe it'll be good by 3:18pm/

[2014olympicgold]

It cleared up enough for us.
