This episode we chat with the premier eclipse climate and weather expert, Jay Anderson. He is the ultimate ‘clear skies guy’ as creator of eclipseophile.com, which is THE standard for eclipse trip planning. He has observed 34 solar eclipses including 24 total solar eclipses. Jay joins us remotely from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
At 10 days out from totality in 2024, we hear about his journey and listen to wise guidance as we transition from climate projections to weather models for the upcoming event.
Dream, travel, explore… you only go around once.” -Jay Anderson
