| When Will There Be A Solar Eclipse In Los Angeles |
The Next Big Thing
Let's cut to the chase: The next solar eclipse visible in Los Angeles will be on April 8, 2024. Mark your calendars, folks! Now, before you start planning your eclipse-watching party, remember, it's only a partial eclipse. That means the Moon won't completely block the Sun, leaving you with a rather stylishly crescent-shaped solar spectacle. Still pretty cool, right?
Tip: Don’t just scroll to the end — the middle counts too.
Patience, Young Padawan
If you're expecting a total solar eclipse where it's pitch black in the middle of the day and you can see stars, you're going to have to wait a bit longer. Unfortunately, those mind-blowing eclipses aren't that frequent for LA. So, while we patiently await the next one, let's appreciate the partial eclipses we get and remember, every eclipse is a unique cosmic performance!
Tip: Don’t rush — enjoy the read.
Eclipse Etiquette 101
Before you whip out your fancy eclipse glasses (you will be wearing them, right?), let's talk about some eclipse etiquette. First and foremost, do not look directly at the Sun. Even during a partial eclipse, the Sun's rays can damage your eyes. So, unless you want to explain to your friends why you're suddenly sporting shades 24/7, wear those eclipse glasses!
QuickTip: Scan quickly, then go deeper where needed.
