Weather is the hot topic as eclipse spectators stake out their spots in US, Mexico and Canada

Associated Press  

MESQUITE, Texas — Eclipse spectators staked out their spots across three countries Sunday, fervently hoping for clear skies despite forecasts calling for clouds along most of the sun-vanishing route. “I booked it instantly, then I told my wife, ‘We’re going to Texas,’” Gotham, England’s Chris Lomas said from the trailer resort Sunday. This time, though, he was staying put in Fredericksburg, Texas, with his family, 10 of them altogether, and holding onto “a considerable ray of hope.” Farther north, in Buffalo, New York, Jeff Sherman flew in from Somerville, Massachusetts, to catch his second total solar eclipse. As for Monday’s cloudy forecast across Texas, “at least I’ll be around people who are like-minded.” Dicey weather was also predicted almost all the way to Lake Erie, despite Sunday’s gorgeous weather.
