NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. — The mayor of Niagara Falls, Ont., says the city is expecting the largest crowd of visitors it has ever seen on the day of a celestial event that will turn daylight into darkness for a few fleeting minutes early next month.
The rare eclipse is expected to be observed in Mexico first at around 11:07 a.m. PT, when the moon will move in between Earth and the sun, before it moves to parts of southern Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada. He says the crowd of visitors -- which is expected to include scientists from NASA and Canada's Space Agency -- is projected to be so large that the majority of the city's hotels are booked and people are now renting out their driveways and backyards to others so they can camp overnight ahead of the big day.More than 20 million under flood watches on West Coast as major storm hits
