If you are going to view the #SolarEclipse you do need eye protection, this is a tad more sophisticated than ones we made after watching Blue Peter for the '82 #EclipseUK Do not buy on Amazon, they will not come in time, and you will not need them in 2090! www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgLC...

If you want to view the #SolarEclipse, the very best view will be at the junction of Red Lees Rd and Long Causeway in #Cliviger, looking towards #Pendle, with 91.7% totality at 7.09pm — the Diamond ring effect. See below for places in #Todmorden, but it'll be a climb on a very hot day — 28c at 7pm.

Apparently, you can set your mobile camera to selfie mode, and turn your back to the sun, but point the camera sensor to the sun. I saw that on Look North this evening.

No rain on Thursday & Friday with plenty of very warm to hot hazy sunny spells as the #heatwave continues. Saturday and into Sunday sees temperatures slip out of the heatwave threshold with less hot air from the N/NW. For now though, the E to NE breeze continues albeit not as strong as recently.
