When the 2017 Great American Eclipse took place, it was in the middle of summer and the weather was not an issue for me when I viewed it near Roberts, Idaho.
Since we're in the early spring, clouds and storms may hinder viewing for some.
Yahoo! News reported:
The total solar eclipse is now just three days away, and local forecasts in 13 states along the so-called path of totality suggest that viewing the highly anticipated celestial event may be a problem for some but less so for others.
In Austin, Texas — which is expecting an influx of more than 1 million tourists for the eclipse — forecasters are calling for mostly cloudy skies during the morning hours, followed by thunderstorms in the afternoon. According to Yahoo Weather, there is a 54% chance of rain on Monday.
Similar conditions are expected in Dallas, though the chance of precipitation (64%) is significantly higher.
