CLIMATOLOGY

This map shows the likelihood of being able to view the solar eclipse, based on historical cloudiness data from the NOAA NCEI 10-year hourly climate normals dataset. The darker the dot, the greater the chance for cloudiness at the hour of peak viewing during the eclipse. More information about this map can be found HERE.
