![2024 Solar Eclipse on April 8: Where to watch in Ontario, Toronto area [Video]](https://canadanewsvideo.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/mp_484880_0_eclipseglasses168289531711982612649jpg.jpg)
With the total solar eclipse just a week away, it’s time to start crafting a plan to observe the celestial show.
A partial eclipse will take place just before 2 p.m. in southwestern Ontario, followed by a total eclipse at 3:12 p.m.
Remember, it is extremely dangerous to observe the eclipse with the naked eye, but finding a safe alternative doesn’t have to be costly – those looking to craft their own eclipse glasses can do so using basic household items.
Viewers use special glasses to watch as the moon moves in front of the sun during an annular solar eclipse, or ring of fire, on Oct. 14, 2023. The total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024 is just a week away and businesses are ready for the celestial event with oodles of special eclipse glasses for sale, along with T-shirts and other souvenirs.
