This Monday, December 14, our country will witness a beautiful and long-awaited astronomical event.
We refer to Total Solar Eclipse, which will be seen in full in the regions of La Araucanía and Los Ríos, while the rest of the country will be able to see it partially.
However, one of the concerns that social networks have taken over in recent hours has to do with the weather forecast for Monday afternoon.
In that sense, according to what the Chilean Meteorological Directorate points out on its website, on Monday “the southern and southern areas of the country will be affected by an area of post-frontal instability, which will weaken from the region of the Araucanía to the south ”.
Then we leave you with the percentage of visibility that the Eclipse will have in each of our regionsas well as the weather forecast.
