While the solar eclipse will awe those in Maine and other states, a UW meteorologist says here in Washington not so much.
The moon almost eclipses the sun during a near total solar eclipse as seen from Salem, Ore., Monday, Aug. 21, 2017. While the celestial phenomenon will awe those in Maine and other states, here in Washington not so much.
We’re only going to have about 20% of the sun covered by the Moon, which is not very much. And on top of that, there’ll be plenty of clouds, especially on the coast. We’ll have some mixed clouds here over Western Washington. So you’re going to have a very, very minimal Eclipse here. And there’ll be plenty of clouds. So I’m afraid it will not be very dramatic here,” he continued.Although, Mass said there may be some breaks in Eastern Washington over the Cascades.
The difference between a total eclipse and 99% is huge, 100% is a religious experience. I went through it last time here in Oregon, and I was scared deep down. It is an emotional experience of being in a total eclipse. But being in 95%, it’s nothing like it. It’s very moving. It is something that’s scary at a very basic fundamental animal level, when all of a sudden the sky turns dark, the animals respond, they quiet down, the birds come down. It’s just really eerie and strange.
