It is the type of solar eclipse Johnny Cash would sing about, even if you will not get the full effect here in Wisconsin. An annular solar eclipse is set to occur on October 14th with people living between Portland, Ore., and Houston, Texas getting the full effect. For those who view the solar eclipse there, it will appear as if the moon has a ring of fire around it. If it is a clear day, you will likely need some special glasses or some kind of other safety device to catch a glimpse of it. If it is a cloudy day, you may not even notice at all. If you miss it, you will not have to wait long until the next solar eclipse which is expected to take place on April 8th, 2024.
