A partial solar eclipse is set to occur on Saturday in the Bay Area, but cloudy skies may hinder visibility. The moon will cover approximately 77% of the sun, with the maximum eclipse happening at 9:19am. However, meteorologists are predicting sub-optimal viewing conditions due to a lot of clouds overhead, especially in the East Bay and Santa Clara valley. Special eclipse glasses are recommended for safe viewing, as the sun's brightness will not significantly dim even at max eclipse. The eclipse is expected to last for about 3 hours, and viewers are advised to have the correct eyewear to protect their eyes.
