April 8th Solar Eclipse Cloud Forecast
-
I have added alerts and favorites to several different locations and cities along the path of totality. For each alert, I have the “hours, date, duration“ turned on with how long must the conditions prevail to recieve an alert set to 6 hours selected, Part of a day I am interested in set with 6-9, 9-12, 12-15, 15-18 selected. I have the “Temperature, weather“ turned on with temperature ranging from 40 to 90 degrees farienheit and clouds set to clear.
Are my alert settings set correctly and I should the hours, date, duration be set at 9 hours instead of 6 hours? I‘m thinking that it should.

I would set “At least 3 hours” instead of “At least 6 hours”. I don’t think you need a clear sky during 6 hours. The total duration of the eclipse is less than 6 hours. “At least 3 hours” gives more opportunities than “At least 6 hours”.
Then you will need to check when you get precisely the small bells in location forecast panels.
It is important look at other models forecast. Alerts are only based on one model prediction (ECMWF).May be “Sun position” plugin in the browser version could be interesting ?
