Cloud cover could potentially obstruct the view of the solar eclipse in Canada, causing uncertainty for eclipse watchers.
TORONTO — Clouds can often be a pretty inconsequential part of a weather forecast from the public's perspective, compared to temperature and precipitation.
Cheng joked that he was"totally reluctant" to make specific predictions for what eclipse watchers could expect to see during a narrow window of time come Monday afternoon.A cloud cover prediction four days in advance, stretching across six provinces, in a brief window of time"can be really off," he said.
Moving into eastern Ontario, around Kingston and Cornwall, Cheng said conditions appeared to be slightly better, but still favoured clouds.The forecast is looking favourable for Quebec regions in the eclipse's path, Cheng said. While he called the area around Gander basically"a writeoff," he said clouds could start to break on the southwestern tip of the island.
