Hello Everyone,

I'm 99% sure I know the answer to this but I just want to double check.
I'm hosting a November 8th star (singular) party at my work for the
Mercury transit. I want to give everyone a chance to see this neat
event.

Unfortunately, northern Illinois Novembers are grey ones. I want a
solid backup plan for if/when I have to let everyone down by cancelling
due to cloud cover by providing a link where everyone can watch the
event.

Will the Nov. 8th transit be visible from SOHO? If so, I'll forward a
link to their site. If not, can any of you recommend alternate sites
that my coworkers can link to?

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
