"Get ready for the rare 'Ring of Fire' solar eclipse passing over the US this Saturday"
TL;DR Summary
A partial annular solar eclipse, also known as the "Ring of Fire," is set to occur in the Kansas City area on Saturday. However, the forecast predicts an overcast sky for much of the event. To safely view the eclipse, special-purpose solar filters like eclipse glasses are required, as ordinary sunglasses are not safe for looking at the sun. Despite the cloudy conditions, it may still be worth trying to catch a glimpse of the eclipse around 11:50 a.m. on Saturday.
