In the W/SW USA this late afternoon/early evening there is a solar eclipse today. The area of totality crosses the OR/CA border and moves SE toward TX. The last I say on TWC said most areas will have cooperative weather for viewing it. BE SURE YOU DO NOT DIRECTLY AT THE ECLIPSE unless you have a welding helmet/glasses.

(Those in Aust. - you'll have one in Nov (17th I think) this year.)

    I just came back from watching it
    It was very cool to watch for the first time in my life. We went to the ocean and a perfect view.
    Great time, it was hard to take a good picture

    Our viewing turned into a
    Our viewing turned into a block party, almost everyone was out to watch the eclipse. The neighbor brought out his welding mask and we used our hands to create pinhole projectors. It was beautiful weather...clear and not too hot. Lots of fun!
