TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE BROCKVILLE [Tell Me More][Tell Me Less]
(The 2 actual solar photos, top & bottom by Keenan Bere)
Brockville had its first total solar eclipse in 700 years. Don't expect to see another in your lifetime in this area.
We plunged into total darkness, with a major drop in temperature, and came out the other side. Cheers from everyone!
There will, however, be a partial solar eclipse on Aug 12, 2026 at 1:44 pm.
