SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, CA. (Pain In The Pass) >> Although California won’t be a part of the path of total solar eclipse, there will be partial obscurations across are region! Fingers crossed for clear skies across Southern California to see half of it. (Photo above is credit by Eric Haggart.)
The solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes directly between the sun and the Earth, casting its shadow toward the planet.
The partial eclipse will begin in Southern California at 10:06am reach a maximum at 11:13am, and end at 12:24pm, according to NASA. About 50 to 60 percent of the sun’s area will be cover by the moon in Southern California.
The weather forecast for Monday morning should be mostly sunny. There also will be a thin marine layer during the early morning for the coast for the Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego County, and parts of the Inland Empire. Sunny skies for the mountains and all the desert cities. If you want to see the eclipse, it is best to go to the mountains or the high desert cities away from the marine layer…
