The April 8 eclipse starts at 2 p.m.

A total solar eclipse, like the one coming Monday, April 8, 2024, has not been seen in eastern Ontario since 1925. No wonder school’s out.

“Near the centre of the path, like in Niagara Falls, you’ll experience 3.5 minutes of totality — complete blockage of the sun. If you’re near the edge, like in Hamilton, this will be closer to two minutes.” A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon aligns between the Earth and the sun, blocking our view of the sun completely and showing only its outermost atmosphere, or corona. Although total eclipses are not necessarily rare, Orbax says, viewing one in the same location is only possible every few hundreds of years.
