DALLAS—Some who hope to witness Monday’s total solar eclipse may see the sun obscured by clouds instead of by the moon.

There’s still plenty of time for forecasts to change, but meteorologists predict that eclipse day storms could blanket parts of the path, which stretches from Mexico and Texas through Maine and parts of Canada.

National Weather Service meteorologist Marc Chenard says the northeast US currently has the best chance of clear skies, along with parts of Arkansas, Missouri and Illinois. Parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and Texas are questionable. Northeast Texas, Chenard says, “could kind of go either way at this point.” Mexico may also have low to mid-level cloud cover.

“It was dark, but we were not able to see the sun,” she said. The clouds parted again during totality, allowing those in Carbondale to catch a glimpse of the full effect.“The uncertainty is still pretty high,” Chenard said. The storms moving across the country make it difficult for meteorologists to predict exactly where and when clouds will arrive.

The Great North American Eclipse: Millions to Witness Total Solar EclipseOn April 8, millions of people in the United States, Canada, and Mexico will witness a total solar eclipse, leading to people dubbing it 'The Great North American Eclipse.' This phenomenon occurs when a new moon is positioned exactly between the Earth and the sun, casting its shadow on Earth and making it appear dark during the daytime. Viewers will get a better glimpse of the sun's outer atmosphere or the corona as the moon covers the sun's disk entirely. The eclipse will pass through Mexico, the eastern half of the United States, and Newfoundland in Canada, while others will see it as a partial solar eclipse.
