Simon,
Where I live just outside Washington, DC, it will approximately 80%.
It's full further west in the U.S. Hotels out west are full. People are
sleeping in their cars, I imagine! <grin>

I didn't know there was to be a solar eclipse this year?
So is it a full one for you folks in the northern hemisphere or only partial?
And besides I'm sure this type of thing happens every day,
Or at least night, I believe what happens is the earth gets in front of the sun
so that the side of the earth furtherest away from the sun is eclipsed from
seeing it, and it gets very dark on that furtherest away side.

Subject: App to make the solar eclipse accessible
Hi,
People living anywhere proximate to the coming solar eclipse might want to look
into a special app intended to help blind and visually impaired people
experience this upcoming celestial event:
https://www.space.com/37746-solar-eclipse-experience-for-visually-impaired.html
The app, Eclipse Soundscape, may well be available via Itunes Appstore.
I haven't checked, though.
Enjoy!
Janina
