In the areas where the total eclipse will occur, there are chances of rain, as per the suggestions by the weather experts. These areas include Texas, Oklahoma, southern Arkansas, Ohio, northwestern Pennsylvania, and western New York
It can be viewed from northern New England, northern Arkansas to central Indiana, California, and parts of the mid-Atlantic and Southeast."
National Weather Service also said that "this is the area of greatest uncertainty due to potential high clouds".
A long-range forecaster Paul Pastelok was quoted in a USA Today report as saying: "Clouds can break for some sunshine, just in time for the afternoon viewing from Chicago to Cleveland. A narrow region of good viewing is expected to open up for cities like Kansas City, Indianapolis, and St Louis."
