Frankly, living in Michigan, this is about as good a forecast for an eclipse as can be hoped for. We may, if the sky continues as is for the duration, get a splendid view of the total eclipse. Throughout Michigan there is anywhere from an 89 – 96% view possible. With the total eclipse due about 3:11 this afternoon. That is extraordinary. Just remember, either be wearing the approved special glasses or simply do not look at it. Your eyesight is the most important part of this event.

Look for some rain Thursday and Friday but the weekend is looking grand. We seem to have turned the corner and are heading in to real spring now. At last.
