Afternoon skies not entirely clear for eclipse viewers

It will not be perfect eclipse viewing for some on Monday afternoon.

Clouds will start to build early this afternoon with a weak wave moving into the area. A spotty shower or storm is possible during peak viewing time at 2:35 p.m.

TRENDING NOW:

The moon will start to block the sun shortly after 1 p.m. this afternoon, with nearly 80 percent of the sun being covered up at 2:35 p.m. The sun will fully emerge from behind the moon in our area shortly before 4 p.m.

Many of you will get a good glimpse of the sky between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m., with many sunny breaks between the clouds this afternoon. Make sure to only try viewing the eclipse with ISO-certified safety glasses.
