BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — Eclipse Day will benear 60, but as far as sky conditions are concerned, there are several indications that we will at least have some mid and high level cloud cover at the time of totality as a warm front approaches WNY. However, a strong ridge of high pressure may help squish some of the clouds and keep the rain away. This means decent, but not perfect viewing conditions. Right now it's looking partly sunny with highs near 60. During totality the temperatures will drop between 3-5 degrees because of the darkness. There is a slight chance of a stray shower near the PA border. Stay tuned as we fine tune the hour-by-hour cloud cover forecast as the event nears.
