Chicago, IL – As Illinois prepares for the notable solar eclipse on April 8th, the National Weather Service advises that visibility could be compromised by moderate cloud cover, with current forecasts predicting a 30-50% chance over the southeastern part of the state.
The path of totality, a sought-after location for eclipse watchers, may thus offer a variable spectacle. With the forecast’s confidence rated low at this stage, updates are crucial for those planning to attend this rare astronomical event.
