Can someone please explain why I cannot see the eclipse in TN
Maybe not a total perfect eclipse but shouldn't I be able to see some of the moon pass in front of the sun?

we are looking at the the same sun and moon so why would I not be able to see it today

thanks for the help

It's because of matter, and how angular it can be, and it's also because of distance and how you can't see around angulars.

Hope that helps real hard.

It's Japan/West Coast specific because of those places' perceptive view of the sun from where they are.

You will be able to see it in TN. In Memphis a partial eclipse begins at 7:23 p.m. From Sky View Cafe.

You will not be able to see the annular eclipse, where the Moon covers the center of the Sun but does not appear big enough to cover it entirely.

Tennessee, you say? Why do you need a logical explanation? Maybe you can "Pray the day away."
