If your serious about Solar Eclipses

[Maxmars]

My wife and I had a running joke between us... the more likely an astronomical event was to occur in our area, the more likely it would rain or be cloudy. 

"There's going to be an eclipse," She would say...
"Overcast." I would reply.

"Meteor shower!" She would point out.
"Fog inbound" I would note.

"Fireworks tonight" She would offer...
"Must be gonna rain..."

Sadly... as far as joke go... it was pretty spot on over the last few years.
