Partial solar eclipse in progress visible in QC

A partial solar eclipse began shortly before 8 a.m.  Wednesday and is now visible in parts of Metro Manila.

State weather bureau PAGASA is live-streaming  from Quezon City the solar phenomenon.

A large swath of Southeast Asia can observe the spectacle this day.

The entire Philippines won't be able to witness the total solar eclipse, but skywatchers in Mindanao will be able to see a partial eclipse.

The sky will darken slightly as a portion of the sun will be blocked by the moon. The eclipse will be at its peak at 8:58 a.m. Wednesday — LBG/KG, GMA News
