Today, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will be visible across North America. It has been dubbed the Earthquake Eclipse…
During a total eclipse, the moon appears almost exactly the same size as the sun and blocks the entire disk for a few minutes — known as totality.
The 115-mile-wide (185 kilometers) path of totality will cross three states in Mexico, 15 U.S. states and four states in southeast Canada.
This animation shows the progress of darkness across the United States:
Solar eclipses make their own weather--starting with the temperature. How much the temperature falls depends on the humidity. Dry environments could see a drop of 8 to 14 degrees, less so if it’s humid. According to NASA, an eclipse in Zambia on June 21, 2001, reduced the temperature nearly 15 degrees.
The reduction in temperature can make clouds disappear. Satellites observing eclipses from Earth orbit have detected many examples. A 10-year study just published in Nature found that cumulus clouds begin dissipating when a mere 15 percent of the sun is covered. In some cases, clouds didn’t start to return until 50 minutes after maximum eclipse.
This could be good news for eclipse chasers in Mexico and Texas, where widespread cloudcover is expected on April 8th. The eclipse itself might help clear the sky.
For the lucky ones living along the path of totality without cloud cover, enjoy this amazing celestial event (only with eclipse glasses) and for the other ones, here’s a feed where you will be able to follow it live (I will be one of those):
Meanwhile, I hope we will be able to catch each other tomorrow, after this ‘earthquake eclipse’… Btw, another good way to sell this amazing celestial event.
Stay safe!

Hey friends! Now its time to SUPPORT MY WORK!
If a few more people choose to become paid subscribers, I could expose more lies, root out more corruption, and call out more hypocrites. So, if you can afford it, please support this work.
Thank you and have a great Monday,

It's a pleasure to join you guys and I hope everybody appreciates Nasa scheduling this eclipse to bring the world together.
Hmm.
Love the harnesses.
Just wonder one: how many people took the official geometry data and recalculated that what we see on the skies? There are still channels like this one which interviews NASA consultant claiming certain things:
