Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The map based on MODIS observations of clouds, highlights the proportion of the Sun that will be eclipsed along with the likelihood of cloudiness. The largest symbols indicate areas where a total solar eclipse will occur, and symbols become bluer where clear skies are more likely. The least cloudy places for seeing the eclipse in the path of totality (shown with large, blue hexagons) tend to be in the Pacific Northwest. Large cities in the path of totality include: Salem, Oregon; Idaho Falls, Idaho; Casper, Wyoming; Lincoln, Nebraska; Jefferson City, Missouri; St. Louis, Missouri; Nashville, Tennessee; Columbia, South Carolina; and Charleston, South Carolina. Of these, Salem, Idaho Falls, and Casper have the highest probability of having clear skies on August 21.
