Can I view the solar eclipse tonight?

Question

I live in Washington DC, will I be able to view the eclipse this evening? What time should I expect it to occur if at all?

Answer 1

See the solar eclipse at night?  Good luck with that.

Answer 2

It happened early this morning.  You can see a video of it on the msn.com home page and probably on TV.  You might have only been able to see the partial eclipse or none of it at all from your location.

Answer 3

The eclipse will be visible in parts of Canada, northern Greenland, the Arctic, central Russia, Mongolia, and China. It will move across the planet in a narrow path that begins in Canada's northern territory of Nunavut and ends in northern China's Silk Road region at sunset, if you live in Washington DC you will not be able to see it.
