Annular Eclipse - Winnemucca - CANCELLED
CANCELLED - Weather projected to be 75% cloud cover in the Winnemucca area.
From Martin:
The annular eclipse is scheduled for October 14 and will not be delayed, nor repeated. Information can be found here:
Where & When | 2023 Annular Eclipse – NASA Solar System Exploration. The moon will block the sun leaving a ring of sun visible. Solar viewers are required to safely look at the sun. Donna has some viewers available.
My plan is to travel Friday, October 13, to Water Canyon Campground outside of Winnemuca NV. The campground has tables, outhouses and aspens. We'll move to the “viewing area” on Saturday morning. Eclipse will begin about 08:00 with the maximum eclipse about 9:15 am. We will be in the path of totality.
