I know where my eclipse event will be!Time: Monday, April 8, 2024 10:30 am-12:30 pm
Location: South Seattle College — grassy field to the east of the south parking lot. Just south of the Wellness Center.
Parking permits for the lots on campus are for sale at the kiosks. Street parking is available on 16th Ave SW.
I’ll bring whatever glasses I have left, help you be sure you’re viewing safely (as long as you ask me!), and I’ll bring indirect viewers.
All ages welcome! Public is invited! Students and college community members invited!
What if it is cloudy or raining???
Thunder: cancelled
Heavy rain/clouds: if it is the kind of weather than might clear up, I am likely to go anyway and wait it out. If it is going to stay socked in, I may cancel. I’ll post information on all the social media and be sure West Seattle Blog knows.
Light clouds: oh yeah, we’re doing this. Our lighter clouds move around a lot, and the Sun shines through them.
REMEMBER: It is NOT safe to view the eclipse through the clouds without other protection. You still need eclipse glasses or indirect methods, even though indirect methods are less likely to work when cloudy.
