A large portion of North America will be able to see today's partial solar eclipse. What does this mean to those of us in Western Colorado? Here's an example of what we are in store for today.

Timeanddate.com offers a service they call the "eclipse calculator." By entering a location, you will be able to observe an animated representation of today's partial solar eclipse.

In Grand Junction, the eclipse will begin at 3:15 PM, and will reach its maximum eclipse at 4:33 PM.

The next eclipse Grand Junction will see won't be until next year, when we'll see a partial lunar eclipse on April 4.
