There will be a partial eclipse today...

[Nique]

...in the Northwest. (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/05/120520-solar-eclipse-2012-ring-of-fire-annular-sun-science-how-see-where/)

It will start around 5pm. There will not be another eclipse like this until 2023, though there will be a full eclipse in 2017.

Feel free to merge this into the science thread if you want.

We get a total eclipse where I'm at.

Now I just have to find some of those nifty glasses so's I don't burn out my retinas.

And those of us on the East Coast of the US will see nothing.

Oh, I was wondering where the moon was tonight, guess it's on the other side of the planet then.

And those of us on the East Coast of the US will see nothing.
Yeah, we just get to enjoy a nice, beautiful sunny day here without interruption.

The horror.

[Flarecobra]

Good day to get shit done though.
